The zebra and pink baby bump cake!!


I LOVE the design of this cake!! The belly is set on the corner of the cake so her dress can flow down to the cake board :D This cake is a 12in marble cake with vanilla buttercream and fondant accents. The baby bump is sculpted from RKT and draped in hot pink fondant! One of my favorite baby shower cakes! Best of all, this cake doesn't creep me out any LOL! Forgive me those who disagree, but the cakes shaped like real babies...CREEPY. I do not want to see someone cut into a cake shaped like a real baby :( Visit cakewrecks.com to see some of those types of cakes! Oh, and look closely, this cake has edible glitter!!! I love me some sparkle :D There is also white sanding sugar on the main part of the cake as well to add some sparkle on the entire cake!

Ribbons and Bows...

Such a pretty wedding cake!!! I LOVE IT!!! I really wish this had been my wedding cake 6 years ago! (At the time, had NO idea fondant even existed!) Everything is edible :D The entire cake is a pretty vanilla cake, with vanilla buttercream, covered in white fondant. I airbrushed the ribbon boarder and bows to give them a realistic satin look.

Mad Hatters Cake!

Very topsy turvy and whimsical! This would be more of a "Tim Burton" Mad Hatter's cake the darker colors. I actually took inspiration not from the movies, but a anime picture that was inspired by the movie. It was really cool to see that picture turn into a cake! The bottom tier is a rich chocolate cake, with nutella fudge filling. The middle and top tiers were both vanilla, but the middle tier had cookies and cream buttercream, and the top had vanilla buttercream. The cupcakes: 40 of them, 20 were Mint chocolate chip with a mint buttercream, and the other 20 were red velvet with cream cheese buttercream; all of which had either "eat me", "try me", or a little green hat on top! Huge cake and very VERY heavy! I love the way this one turned out and how different it is!

Topsy Turvy!

OMG isn't it so cute! I made all three of the animals out of fondant. The cake is all vanilla cake with vanilla buttercream, decorated with colorful fondant dots!! There was a casualty during the party...the elephant was just too heavy for that tiny corner of cake, and so he fell, and lost a leg as a result of impact with the table :( Luckily, everyone got to see it first lol! This cake feeds about 35 (give or take because of strange design!) and costs $140

Football Cake!

This cake is a 2 tier vanilla cake with vanilla buttercream, and fondant accents! I made the football out of modeling chocolate and it was so heavy, I had to stick a plastic fork behind it to hold it up! LOL! This cake feeds 32, and costs $85

Wedding cakes

First delivery I did all by myself :D The wedding cake is a 3 tier square design, covered in fondant. I hand piped the scrolls in buttercream! The top tier of this cake is "Wedding White" with a cream cheese filling. The second tier is Wedding White with strawberry filling. The bottom tier is Wedding White, marbled with Red Velvet! I wish I could have seen that bottom tier when it was cut because it was soooooo pretty when baking!! The grooms cake is a 3d version of the groom's school logo. It is a chocolate mud cake with cream cheese filling. Bridal cake feeds 105 and was priced at $370. Groom's cake feeds approximately 50, and was priced at $150.
