The theme for this woman's nursery was the potter barn's lady bugs. I baked the 10" cake and molded her and the lady bugs out of fondant. The flowers were made of gumpaste as well as the leaves. I used bamboo floral sticks for the stems.

This is an 8" square chocolate cake, cut out leg areas then ice with a buttercream icing. I used a little fondant for the wrap around tabs and then used a rose tip to ruffle around the legs. I mixed some german chocolate icing, chocolate icing and a few chocolate covered peanuts eeewww gross! lol

I used 2X6 inch cake pans and cookie cutters to make the impressions for the cake designs and made the Booties and Flowers with fondant icing and laced the booties with sheer ribbon.

The top cake is Chocolate, 2nd cake is Vanilla, and third cake is Strawberry. I iced them with butter cream dream frosting.

I stacked 10" and 8" cakes and covered them in fondant. I added the stripes and then molded the pod and baby face out of fondant as well.

The baby dress, was a half sheet pan trimmed and iced in buttercream there are royal icing flowers and fondant accents.

This is a carrot cake with cream cheese icing. I made it using a 16 1/2 x 12 3/8 oval cake pan. All the decorations are made from fondant.

The 3-d bassinet is three stacked oval cakes. Take 2 8" cakes cut in half. Use 3 of the half cakes and place them on top of the oval cake. use your buttercream icing to attach and keep the pieces together. Ice the whole cake in buttercream then go back over the bassinet outside with a basket weave and use fontant accents for blanket and baby.

I used the 6 X 2 inch square pans and tiered the cakes. Each block is about 6 X 4 1/2 in size. I used cookie cutters to make the impressions to make the letters and designs.Each cake is a different flavor. One is chocolate, one carrot cake, one is white and one strawberry. I used Cream Cheese Icing to frost the blocks.

Here's the icing recipe I used:
Cream Cheese Icing: Makes about 2 1/2 cups.
1-package ( 8 ounces ) cream cheese,softened
1-tablespoon milk
1-teaspoon vanilla
4-cups powdered sugar

Beat cream cheese, milk and vanilla in large bowl on low speed, until smooth. Gradually add in powdered sugar,1-cup at a time,until smooth and of spreading consistency.

For the Booties: You use three large marshmallows. Cut one in half and stack it on one of the other marshmallows. You use your icing to stick the two and a half marshmallows together. Using your # 16 or # 18 open star tip, you begin at the bottom making in-line shells and go all around the two bottom marshmallows, working your way upwards. When you get to the half marshmallow you work your way around it in the same manner. On the top of the lower marshmallow you work your shells in a up and down motion...this gives the illusion of a crocheted look as well :o)

First we cooked a sheet cake and decorated it like a pond with a log for the frog to sit on.

For the frog we used the large Wilton bear pan. We cut the crown out of cake and used rods to hold it into place. Buttercream icing was used on the entire cake.

The block cakes is made out of 3 -6" cakes iced in buttercream. Support the 3rd block on top with dowel rods and put your own accents on with fondant.

I made this cake for my daughter's baby shower which was a tea party theme. The cake itself is a 10" round chocolate cake with 4 layers filled with a buttercream and cream cheese mixture and covered with fondant. I made the tea cup and saucer from gumpaste.

I made the saucer by rolling out the gumpaste to 1/4" and after cutting it into a small saucer size circle I put a real saucer upside down and laid the gumpaste on the saucer to dry.

For the tea cup used a very small glass bowl, coated it with shortening and formed gumpaste over it. After it dried I added a gumpaste handle decorated it with royal icing and painted the saucer and cup with luster dust. I then made the baby and teddy from gumpaste and pillow and after they dried put them in the cup and covered them with a gumpaste blankie.

Here is a picture of my jungle baby cake. It was fun to make this and I love the hippo's. The jungle animals are all edible, made from molded fondant.

Here is a fall leaf baby cake I made for a baby shower. Some of the photos are a little detailed but basicly I use cookie cutters for the leaves on the acorn baby baby shower cake and hand stenciled the sides of the cake with a stencil bought at michael's. The fondant characters are hand molded and each one is uniquely different than one another easy to make just very time consuming but the end product is wonderful.

This cake was made for a duel shower one was having a girl. the other a boy. The bassinets were hand molded from fondant and all the accents were made from fondant. The cake was iced with COOL WHIP!!! I air brushed the plaid on the 1/2 sheet cake.

This is a cake made for my niece's adoption party when she was 5. There are 1,000 roses on the cake. It is made with a a 10" and 8" cake with about 1,000 butter cream roses mounded on top of butter cream cake. There is also a pink fondant bow on the side.

This baby cake was made with 2 layer cakes 9inch and 12 inch. I used fondant for face and feet and diaper. That's it!

this cake was made with a hood that was styro foam and decorated a 9X13 pan (double layer) chocolate cake. I used a rose tip to do the ruffles and made buttercream roses for the top of the hood. The blanket was made from fondant.

Bake one 11x15 white cake and 4 cupcakes. Frost cake with white buttercream decorators frosting and pipe chocolate buttercream frosting onto the cupcakes using a star tip. Create box borders on cake by piping white shells in rows and columns across the cake. Pipe white shells on the top edge and bottom edge border as well. Write WELCOME across the top boxes and BABY in the center boxes using a star tip. Alternately through the rest of the boxes pipe baby bootes, baby rattles, umbrellas, and safety pins. Create ribbons on the baby rattles, umbrellas and baby booties using a #2 tip. Using a small star tip -- create dots along the bottom shell border using all the colors used in the cake

This was my first cake I ever decorated after my first cake decorating class!! It was for a co-workers baby shower she was attending -- and everyone just loved the cake! I was able to use all the techniques I had learned on this one cake. Even though I was very nervous about it being my first cake - I think the cake turned out great!
