Checkerboard Cake

This cake was made special for my roommates to celebrate their birthdays! The top tier is funfetti cake, the middle was yellow cake, and the bottom tier was devil's food cake. I actually used store bought icing for this cake and suprisingly it turned out pretty smooth over all. The girls loved the cake and it was eaten in probably about an hour's time.

Daisy Cake


This cake was the final cake for our Wilton fondant and gum paste class. Although this cake took quite a bit of time to decorate, I love the way it turned out. I really enjoy the way brown and blue compliment each other and it actually turned out really well on a cake. The daisies on the cake add a little splash of character to already bold cake. This cake is also my first complete fondant cake.

Music Cake


Made for Wilton Course 1 class, the final cake was our choice of decor and theme. Music is a big part of my life and I decided to make something simple but fun. I really enjoyed making the black and white parts because I felt like it gave sort of a "tuxedo" style to the cake and made it a little classier. I think this is one of the more enjoyable cakes I've made thus far in terms of decorating.

Clown Cupcakes


These cupcakes were made during the week three of our Wilton Course 1 class. The little alligator was my favorite of all. The variety of different designs was not part of the class, but we decided to change things up some during class.
