all buttercream icing....the child was turning "2" so I put the 2 on the side of the train rather Percy's real number
all buttercream icing
This was done using a mannequin head, and cake of course.. krispies to give my female mannequin head a more manly facial features, buttercream icing, and air brushed
did this cake in a hurry. All bc icing air brushed in pink....free handed the medical symbal and nurse hat.
This cake was done for an outside wedding (95F) Iced in crusting butter cream icing. I was in tears icing theses cakes......finally found out what everyone was talking about with the crisco shortening....grrrrrrrrrr! Although I have learned if you use the store brand, the icing turns out much better. Maybe they haven't change theirs yet. The icing with crisco in it just would not stick to the cake. I was ready to scream. But made it through and I think for my 3rd wedding cake all turned out OK!
Another view of my 1st frozen buttercream transfer. Was so fast and easy.....I will be sure to use this technique over and over again!
iced in BC......I took a few dollar tree trucks apart for the wheels, grill, smoke stacks, and side steps. Airbrush the rest.
all done in BC sprayed and I added a few mini cards, and a few chips (made of butter cream) for a little added touch
This cake was for an 11 year olds "CheetahGirls/Spa themed" birthday party. I iced this 12" round cake with butter cream. Hand designed the stencil cut outs. And hand painted the Cheetah print within the middle Star. I then add a few scrapbooking pieces glued to toothpicks to add in the spa theme.
My daughter wanted a BIG birthday cake for her 3rd birthday. She loves Strawberry Shortcake, so here is what I came up with. It is a double layer 8" and a double layer 10". Iced in all butter cream. The strawberry on top was made with the little doll dress pan.
Just a quick football cake. All free handed in BC icing
After doing the batman and spiderman cakes I had a request for a superman. Unfortunately it didn't turn out very well. They didn't want as much cake so I changed the way I set it up. If you want to see how I did it let me know. (I took pics of the steps) Work out nicely, but I dont think I will ever do another super hero cake that doesn't where a mask. Very hard to make the details of the face.
This a 3/4 sheet cake. I attempted to make it look like a bowling lane. Turned out ok, but could have been much better if I had more time to work on it
this is yet another cake inspired by someone on here. (sorry I cant remember who) I used the wig head thing. Made cut outs for the ears, wrapped them in foil and taped it to the head. I then iced it with BC, and sprayed it!
This is the other side of the cake! I used a 10" and 2 8" round cakes just as the others did. I think that is what the used. LOL THANK YOU all who I stole the idea from!
This cake was inspired by a few that I have seen on here. My 2 nephews share a birthday......although one is 6 and his brother is 2! So I decided to make a cake that would appeal to both of them. On one side is the Cookie Monster, the other side is spiderman. The party hat is on there because I couldn't get my hands on a wig head, (I had to make my own of styrofoam ball and cone) so the head kept wanting to fall off so I used a metal rode and had to hide it with a hat at the last minute. LOL
This is a 1/4 sheet cake with BC icing. I made an 8"x2" round and cut out 3 circle that I stacked one one top of the other. I put it in the freezer to make icing it easier. For the little sheet hanging off the side of the roll...I iced a sheet of waxed paper and cut it to size. Then lad it up against the roll.
Not nearly as good as the other one I saw on here....but my daughter loved it!
got an idea from here.....made a stencil and sprayed it and piped it....can't remember who I got the idea from.....But if they see this THANK YOU for the great idea!
