Cherry Blossom Cake







This post is ridiculously overdue, I apologize to Elise who has been waiting months for me to post this ;-) But this is hands down, one of my top favorite cakes, maybe even my favorite I'm not sure. It is in fact a birthday cake, not a wedding cake but when you turn eighteen you can have a three tiered cake :-) We went to Kobe's for dinner and the cake matched the restaraunt! I spent maybe a week making all of the flowers plus extras. The happy birthday sign was a last minute edition because I thought the cake needed something, it was just a piece of gumpaste that I hand-painted with food coloring but I like it :-) I have no idea what the red thing is so don't ask, it just looks really fun.

Sushi Pop!




If you have ever been to the most wonderfully delicious sushi restaraunt in the universe known as Sushi Pop in Oviedo you must, because you are missing out on happiness in fish form. Also you will understand this cake a little better. This cake was made for the owners of the restaraunt, and the design was inspired by the awesomeness of it. It was fun because I got to make a really modern and bright design on the side which I haven't really done before. I also enjoyed making little fondant pieces of sushi! :-D

Baby Cakes!








I adore these! I made them for two beautiful new-born baby twins, Michael and Aiden :-) (I misspelled Aiden on the cakes :-O) But I had oodles of fun making the little baby accessories! Everything was done completely in fondant and was painted with food coloring. I also used my nifty little food coloring markers to do a lot of the designs. I think the rattle cake is my favorite :-)

Pool Table Cake

Not my favorite, but still kind of cute :-) This was a very last minute cake, and it is very shiny! (too much water in the fondant)
