Thomas The Tank Engine 3D Carved Train Cake

Made this for my friend's son. Chocolate and Vanilla cake with buttercream filling. Covered with home made marshmallow fondant and a LOAD of detail work. Took about 12 hours including baking, icing, fondant, carving, and decorating... Decorating alone took about 8 or 9. Thank you to my wonderful husband, Matt for cutting the cake board and doing an awesome job carving so I'd have a Fantastic canvas to work with.



Happy Birthday Charlie! Tell mommy thank you for sharing this picture of you with your cake!

Super Mario Bros., Toad Mushroom, 1-up Cupcakes

12 vanilla cupcakes with buttercream frosting and fondant toppers. This is a Super Mario Brothers theme. These mushrooms are "toads"??? Whatever... my kids are giving me an education.. The large toad is actually a very small cake iced in buttercream and covered with fondant. I used a small ramekin to bake it.

Happy 1st Birthday Little Prince Castle Cake

Yellow cake with buttercream filling. Covered with homemade marshmallow fondant. Airbrushed to look like a real castle. Pretty cool looking. The little guy is the brother of one of the kids from the school I worked at last year. I used rice krispy treats for the castle corners and the stone wall.

Carved Doggy Cake

Made this cake for the Town Crier Bakery. Pound Cake carved and iced in buttercream then covered with fondant and airbrushed. The collar says "Happy Birthday Jill".

Roary The Race Car 3rd Birthday Cake

Made this cake this morning for The Town Crier Bakery in Peddler's Village. The customer provided a photo of a Roary Cake that was covered in fondant. This is a similar cake that is iced in buttercream with fondant accents.

Hard Rock Guitar Cake

Made this cake for the customer that is purchasing the snail cake and who got the zebra print jacket cake. They have LOTS of Birthday's in their family and get all their cakes from The Town Crier.

This is all buttercream on pound cake. Started as a 1/2 sheet cake and was carved.

Snail Cake

Made this cake for The Town Crier Bakery today. It's the first time I've ever done a carved cake that is virtually fondant free. This is all buttercream except for the little googly eyes. The client wanted a "Whimsical Snail".

Monster Jam Birthday Cake

My son absolutely loves Monster Trucks. His favorite is Blue Thunder and for his Birthday, he asked for a monster truck cake. His cousin TJ is celebrating his Birthday in February also (the boys are 6 days apart), so this is for both of them.

It was most definitely a challenge. Matt was an indispensable part of this project. He put his carpentry skills to work and built an incredible frame for me to work with. He also helped carve the shape of the truck. He wanted to have a hand in our son's cake and he did a fantastic job!!! I love you baby!

Happy Birthday Garrick & TJ!!!

For the Outdoorsman...

This cake was made for the father-in-law of a good friend of mine. He's a hunter, fisherman, camper... etc. So we went with an outdoorsman theme. (Is that a word?)

Anyway... I'm thrilled with the result. There's a TON of detail in this cake and you really could stare at it for a while. Of course to me... that's what's so cool!

Hope you like it!

Baby's First Birthday Cake.

This is a cake for my nephew's 1st Birthday.
This is a White Cake with mini chocolate chips, butterscotch icing, and Twix candy bar crushed on top under the leaves. The decorations are all fondant.

The bushel is two - 9" round cakes and the little pumpkins are mini bundt cakes sandwiched together with butterscotch icing between the layers. They are iced and covered in fondant.

The leaves are all made out of gum paste. Baby is also gum paste. Absolutely everything on this cake is edible. Minus the cake plate of course.

Here are a couple of photos of the Birthday Boy and his cake.
