Acropolis On Books

Cake was made for a young man that was graduating College (Business Economics Major), was going into Law School , but was first going to take a month vacation in Greece. The Acropolis was scaled down from it's original 16 pillars long to 8- for asthetic reasons, and is resting comfortably on the 2 stacked school books that are approx 30"x24" each. Both cakes were "Chunky Carrot Cake" with Cream Cheese filling. The Acropolis , and ruins were completely made of gumpaste and fondant. Everything on the cake was edible. This cake was HUGE & weighed a TON ! Thanks for looking.

Edison High School Cakes

I was asked to make a "Special" cake for a luncheon given by my son's High School for the "Distinguished School Awards Committee, who were attending to judge the school on it's merits. UGH...NO PRESSURE THERE!!!! I came up with a school-colored pennat-style cake , with a trophy by it's side. The pennat cake was HUGE (can't tell in the photo). The trophy is all edible as well. Wood-grained fondant-coated bottom is cake and a sugar loving cup on top that I hand made from gum paste. I was informed that not a crumb of it was left, so I hope they received their award.
