January 25th
This is a chocolate cake with a regular buttter cream frosting and then covered with marshmallow fondant. I made leaves out of white chocolate to decorate with. All in all, not too difficult to make.

Past Cakes
I've decided that it'd be fun to start a blog to show off some of the cakes I've made and to get ideas on new creations. If you have suggestions I'd love to hear them! Please keep in mind that some of these were made while I was still taking classes and 'learning the ropes'.This is the UFC Fight Ring cake I made for a woman's 40th(?) birthday. I didn't mold the fighters - they were purchased from Toys R Us! Hahaha!
The Sorting Hat from Harry Potter.
It's funny to me that the grown men are the ones that ask for the super hero cakes!
A Barbie cake for a little girl turning 4.
There's a 19 year old girl I know who asked me to make her a TMNT cake for her birthday and this is what I came up with. I'm pretty sure she liked it - lots of smiles and squeals.
My little sister's wedding cake. I covered it in fondant and then made Gerber daisies out of gum paste. This was fun to make.
I made this one for the dinner after our baby's blessing. That brown blob on the back corner is supposed to be a monkey - I failed. Let's just say that I'm not so good at molding characters! Maybe I'll just have to practice some more.
Learning how to make bows out of fondant.
I saw this one in a book and just thought it looked fun. (And yummy)
My first stacked cake.
I was learning how to make the basket weave pattern as well as flowers in my classes and this is what I came up with as a final cake. (The flowers are poinsettias, in case you couldn't tell. LOL)
My snowflake cake! I added shimmer dust to the snowflakes to make them sparkle.
These are a couple sheet cakes that I made for a cub scout shin-dig.
This is one of the first cakes I made. I have to admit that I made this on an 'off' day. I was expecting baby number 4 and he was giving me a HARD TIME!
