Mickey Mouse Cake

Edible image cutouts used for characters and black Mickey Mouse cutout, balls are gobstoppers, cake was airbrushed,

fondant, edible markers, and painting used for other decorations.

Oh, and the yellow small balls are actually white dragees that you can color or dust to your liking.

I used my new klay gun for the lollipop wand and it worked sooooo much better than my plastic one. Handpainted the wand for swirl effect and sprayed some Pam on it to keep the shine.

My Cakes - Then & Now 1

Here's a photo I unearthed from last year that I never published. I really had to chuckle. I'm comparing it with this year's photo (I guess I'm indirectly trying to fish for compliments while also encouraging anyone who's interested in cake decorating to go for it. If I can, anyone can!)

I love how the lightsaber has a bloody stain all around it. Very age appropriate for a 7-yr. old!

Pink Zebra-Striped Monogram Cake

My neighbor requested a simple cake, so I stuck with the zebra-stripe theme minus the feathers. I didn't mean for it to look like a hat, but it kind of does with the circular base.

Ostrich Feather Zebra-Striped Cake w/ Monogram Cupcakes

This was for a 13th birthday party. Cake was yellow with chocolate buttercream, covered in vanilla fondant. Handpainted zebra-stripes, numbers were fondant/gumtex with silver dragees. Also used silver dragees to make the belt buckles at the base. Everything is edible (except for the feathers :P)

Teal Monogram Cupcakes

These went along with the feather cake. The circles are fondant with the A's handwritten with an edible black marker. I'm horrible at handwriting, but it seems if I concentrate really hard, I can write one letter at a time fairly ok.

I think next time I do chocolate buttercream, I'll pipe it a different way. I think being a dog owner, it just looked a little too similar to something else...:P

Pikachu Birthday Cake

Pikachu Birthday Cake

This was a fun cake I did for a good friend's 8th birthday. I basically copied a google pic of a Pikachu figurine. The grass hill and tree stump were vanilla cake with chocolate ganache and fondant (the tree bark was chocolate candy clay which holds texturizing better). Everything, everything, everything was airbrushed. I was very lazy with this cake. The apples and leaves were candy clay.

Here is the birthday boy. I've known him ever since he was born. And before!! Happy Birthday, Eli!!!

Due to my laziness, Pikachu's tail didn't last very long. I had made it out of gumpaste/fondant the night before, so it was not dry and started curving as soon as I put it on. The ears made it okay. I let them dry in Wilton leaf formers, I believe, and that gave them the curve. Oh, and the body and head are rice cereal treats covered in chocolate candy clay and then fondant. You can still see the lumps from the rice cereal which I don't like :(

Angelina Ballerina Cake

I didn't know too much about this cartoon rodent before I did this cake but 4 yr. old Keely loves her.

Thankfully, I got to do two similar cakes in the same weekend. Had a lot of fun with the ballerina theme.
