Globe cake!














My first sphere, this cake definitley presented some challenges. The first attempt was for the whole thing to be cake, but that ofcourse was too much weight, so i opted for plan B. The bottom half is styrofoam. placed atop a piece or sterilazed PVC pipe which is also covered in fondant. I made matching cupcakes to make up for the lack of cake :/ but they ended up really loving it! :) Im a perfectionist so i was determined to get this cake to stand up! lol The moon orbiting the earth is also a small styrofoam ball covered in fondant that i added some crators to. She requested that the happy birthday shout out come from Houston, TX, so i did my very best to pin point it! the globe as a whole is not EXACT...but i got as close as i could for the time I was allotted, this was a very last min request. :)

Birthday cake and Marine cake





















A birthday cake I made for My friend Thaos b-day, teh bottom is chocolate cake and the top is half strawberry, half white cake per request. This was also my first attempt at teh whole 3-d wire decor. :) The second cake is a marine cake that a friend asked me to make for their son who was leaving for the Marines. Two layer chocolate 12" bottom with chocolate icing and two layer choclate 10" top. Hand painted gold with edible godl paint. This was my biggest cake yet, so ofcourse it was a bit of trial and error...but now i know! :)
