| You know those "Tacky/Ugly" Sweater parties that are popular around the holidays?! I finally got to make a cake for one!! |
 |
| There is no fondant on this cake, the "lights" and gold details were large sprinkles, everything else was icing (helped sell the "stitched" look of the sweater) |
 |
| There was a large round base cake, and a sweater shaped second layer. SO MUCH FUN! |
 |
| A Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cake to include ALL 4 turtles! |
 |
| The middle there is a man-hole cover, you know, because they live in the sewers?! Seemed more interesting than another pizza. |
 |
| Flowerpot base supported a "bouquet" of cupcake flowers, & a few chocolate leaves |
 |
| Birthday cake for a trumpet player in high school band. |
 |
| Fondant Trumpet, Musical notes for side detail |
 |
| I love how the little trumpet turned out, my first all-fondant instrument I think. |
 |
| This cake came with a very specific vision of "Frozen with Hearts & Rainbows" |
 |
| Think we pulled it off, complete with snowflake clouds |
 |
| For the Novelty Category, I decided to go with a Novel. ha. |
 |
| I always enjoyed the artwork in Beatrix Potter's children's stories like Peter Rabbit. |
 |
| Had fun with Cornelli lace on the book's binding |
 |
| Piped in the book's pages as well. Done! 1st Place in the Novelty Category!! |
 |
| Started with buttercream brush embroidery on the bottom layer, a "rustic" iced second layer with fondant "burlap" wrap |
 |
| Topped with a buttercream swirl-rose dome. |
 | |
| 1st place in the Tiered Category! |
 |
| After being on display for a week- the cake was given to the chickens at my house. |
 |
| Hen-approved cake. |
