Princess Pink Castle Cake
I think every mom dreams of making a pretty castle cake for their little girl. So much fun to make! 12" stylized grass tier, 8" textured castle tier, with fondant-covered RKT for the top half of the castle. Turrets are hollow fondant tubes. Everything else is a mixture of fondant and gumpaste. Flavour was vanilla pound cake with strawberry cheesecake filling. Thanks for looking!

Strawberry Shortcake
I've always wanted to make a cake based on this character, so was very happy to be asked to make one! What an adorable theme! 8"/6" rounds with fondant and gumpaste decorations. Strawberry's house is made of fondant covered styrofoam. Flavours were red velvet with cream cheese (for the adults), and chocolate with cookies 'n cream for the kids.

Monkeys Jumping On The Bed
A cake for an adorable 1-year old whose favourite toy is a large, stuffed monkey. What better way to showcase her playful and energetic personality, than with a "5 little monkeys jumping on the bed theme". Rich dark chocolate mud cake with vanilla SMBC. Gumpaste figures and fondant decorations. Thanks for looking!

Traditional Elegance - Flowers And Butterflies
I was so happy when I was asked to make a cake with flowers, butterflies and the color pink. What a classic combination, and a great opportunity to practice making sugar flowers. Cake is french vanilla with strawberry buttercream. Flowers and butterflies are made out of gumpaste.

Spiderman Cake
A Spiderman cake for a special little boy: classic chocolate cake filled with cookies 'n cream buttercream and milk chocolate ganache. 8" and 6" rounds, 3.5" square. 3D Spiderman topper is made out of gumpaste. Note: this was my first time using Satin Ice fondant (blue tier), and I have to say that I really dislike it. Had lots of problems with tearing and wrinkles (even with added shortening and glycerine). Kudos to those CC users who can use this product successfully! I think I'll stick to making my own.

Pink Ruffles
I saw this design and knew I wanted to try it (sorry, I don't know who to give credit for the original design). This cake is sheer decadence: Belgian chocolate mudcake with dulce de leche filling, cream cheese buttercream and Frangelico-infused dark chocolate ganache. Pretty pink ruffles were made using french vanilla swiss meringue buttercream. Yum!
