Applique Dog Rose Wedding Cake

I say cake, but this is a dummy cake....my first actually.

 I did think it would be easier to work with,

but it is so light and a little awkward, how you girls do them so well is beyond me!

I have had this image in my head for ages now

and though I had better get and put it to cake (as such) before it goes!

............I am pretty pleased with how it looks, even though my piping needs more practice!

Now to work on the other!!!

Bottom Tier: 7"

Top Tier 5"

Covered in plain white and the piping work painted with pearl to highlight.

Camouflage Boobs Cake

...............................

This turned out a little more "Perky" than I intended,

but the customer was very happy with it,

I told her to think of it as getting extra cake!! lol!

I have noticed that my photostream is starting to look like my "old" photostream,

with Wall-E and now this......but I am not complaining!

Vanilla Sponge Cake with buttercream sandwiched and covered,

then covered in skintone fondant & Camouflage fondant.

Placed on a 16 inch x 14 inch cake board

still enjoyed it all the same and so worth it when you see

the faces of the customers! :o)

This is a Chocolate, Vanilla layer cake

with buttercream...yum!

The wheels and Eyes are made from polystyrene

and covered in fondant.

Everything on this was handcut.....that's why I never went to bed last night

Wedding Anniversary Cupcakes

After doing the Wedding Cupcakes this last weekend,

the Florist asked if she could order a Cupcake Gift Box

for her Wedding Anniversary in any design I wanted,

so I thought of these heart ones

(like I did quite a bit back, but with silver trim)

and when she came to collect them...........she loved them!

................................

Really do love this design and think this will have to be my Valentine's line for next year!www.smallthingsiced.co.uk

Teal & White Wedding Cupcakes & Cookies

This was my first Wedding order.....well, it was for the "Sweets Table"

at the Evening Reception, but still a Wedding order all the same!

and so nice to be broken into this field gently.

The Bride to be came along with her parents (who were all very lovely) to see samples

of what I could do for her and to my surprise she wanted

all the designs and for two weeks later.....I was very excited!!!!!

Absolutely love the colours Teal & White,

Just wish I was able to get some photo's of them all set up together!

But I am very happy with how they all turned out....hope

everyone liked them as much as I did!

So Gemma if you read this,

"Thank you!" so much for the order,

I am honoured you chose me to make your Cupcakes and Cookies

for the evening reception.

 All the best to you & your husband!

Carp Cake #2

I was asked to make a cake for a lady who wanted to use it for "Guess the weight of the cake" at a Macmillan Fundraiser, where there will be a fishing compitition as a main event and wanted it to tie in with that.........so seeing I already did a fish cake the other week I wanted to do something a little different this time and opted for a more 3D one. The cake was being picked up at 6pm on Thursday and being taken to Brighton.

This I might add is my second attempt........I baked the cake(s) and and left them to settle for a day as always and then carved it, filled it, dowelled it, covered it with fondant, marked it with the scales.............then it broke in half ARHHHHHHHHH!!!! and it broke in a way I couldn't repair it!!!! so I, nearly in tears put the mixer on and started baking all over again, meanwhile my hubby is off to the shops buying more ingredients to make more (as this was a late order anyway) let the cakes go cold and start all over again..........and I don't like carving really fresh cake as it doesn't cut so smooth, but it worked thank god and finally finished this at 4.30 in the morning...........I was so tired, 2.5 hours sleep and up again!

I hope they like it after all that! lol! the guy who picked it up thought it was fantastic so...fingers crossed!

The cake measures

about 10 inches (L)

8 inches (H)

and about 4.5 inches (W)

Well after all that I have confirmation that everyone LOVED the cake!!!

YIPEEEEE!!!!

Carp Cake

I was asked to make a cake by the lady who had the horse cake I did a while back,

this time for her Husband's 60th Birthday.

She wanted something related to fishing as this was his interest and he loves Carp fishing.....

so as I haven't made a fish cake before I was very keen to do this.

This was the most theraputic work I have ever done,

I so hope I get to make another fish cake in the near future.

..........................

This measures 20" x 8"

"Happy New Year!" Black & Silver Cupcakes

"Happy New Year" to all my Blogger friends and a big thank you to everyone who took the time to stop by & leave a comment! :o)

These little gems are for a New Years Party we will be attending tonight,

They are vanilla cupcakes with the usual rosewater buttercream,

half were topped with a circle of embossed fondant

and then painted with edible silver paint....

very time consuming

so with the other half of cupcakes

I decided on something a little quicker,

I have always LOVED Kylie's (Le Cupcake) cupcakes

so she was the inspiration on the black with silver balls....

not as elegant as hers always are, but I still love them.

Here is a link to her Gorgeous creations www.flickr.com/photos/lecupcake/1814093028/in/set-7215760...aren 't they just stunning!!!!!!

.......... All in all very pleased with these.

decorated with hand cut,

embossed fondant baubles and dusted with lustres.

I piped royal icing dots around for the boarder and then sprinkled the cake with magic sparkles to give it that frosted look! Here's Wishing you all a "Wonderful Christmas and a Very Happy New Year!"
