Aryanna's bday was in April, and her cake request was "something with a dog & a doghouse on top". Alrighty then. Her cake was chocolate on the bottom tier, with chocolate fudge filling. The top tier was vanilla with vanilla buttercream filling. It was all covered in fondant. The doghouse was made of rice krispies, then again covered in fondant. She loved it!
This next cake I made for a bbq i had at my place. It's an angel food cake base, the middle had cool whip and sliced strawberries, covered in Cool Whip frosting. The top is covered in chocolate covered strawberries, and also raspberries and blueberries. It was delicious!
This cake was made as a goodbye kinda deal. One of the ladies who works at the jewelry store next to me left her job to pursue bigger and better things. So on her last day, this is what I brought her. The entire cake was devil's food, but also had a caramel filling. IT was first covered in chocolate fudge icing, then covered in fondant. The flowers are royal icing. It was pretty yummy, and quite a number of employees at the mall got a taste of it.
Next up! Erica's birthday cake! Her request was simple enough, "penguins with an igloo". Alrighty then! Then entire thing was sinple enough to make. I totally didn't go with royal icing penguins (we've proved that kills my mixer and they look slightly ridiculous in the end!) so the penguins were made of fondant. The igloo was a large cupcake, and marshmallows covered in fondant. The cake itself was chocolate fudge on the bottom with chocolate fudge filling, the top was vanilla with vanilla filling. She loved it!
The last cake I have to update on was made for a friend's daughter's first birthday. Not having really done any kind of character cake in awhile (or really for that matter) I was stumped at first. But my friend wanted it simple and girly so this is what I came up with. The bottom tier was chocolate fudge with chocolate fudge pudding filling. The top tier was vanilla cake with vanilla pudding filling. The entire cake was covered in fondant, with fondant accents, and royal icing flowers.
That's it for now! might have a couple more coming up! You never know!
