The County Fair






The first two were a joint effort with Dennis and I. The doghouse is cake, the ball, hydrant and bone are fondant covered styrofoam (could use crispy treats but they would be too heavy to cart around), and the mailbag is gumpaste. Dog is fondant (didn't Dennis do a good job carving?!?!).

The second cake is mine...it is all stryrofoam, so I can keep it!

Desiree's Wedding Cake




I wish we were better phototgraphers, and could get the angle right. I was pretty happy with how this cake turned out. Believe it or not, the cake actually was level!

Poor Dez...most of us dream about our wedding day for a long time. This wedding was planned for the very beautiful Iris Gardens. It is full bloom right now and gorgeous. Alas, we woke up to rain! Fortunately, there was a backup venue available. Not what the bride would have chosen, but hey...if you end up married at the end of the day, I'd call the wedding a great success!

Happy Wedding Day, Dez!

Nurse Cake




My sister commissioned me to do this for a nurse she works with. I am really happy with how it turned out. It is a ten inch white cake with raspberry filling. The accessories are a mixture of fondant and gumpaste, so are edible. The tip of the needle is a toothpick (the only un-edible thing). The stethoscope is painted with silver luster dust, as is the "needle".

I hope the EKG readout is normal...heehee...
