Rubber Ducky Baby Shower Cake

Well, this cake didn't get too many photos. I am hoping to get a better one from others who took pictures.

This is a white sheet cake (1/2 sheet) with a 6" in the corner. The Shower was ALL ABOUT DUCKY'S!! So what do you do but a ducky cake! The cake is iced with a whipped cream icing loosely frosted to look like foamy bubbles. The water is my first attempt at playing with sugar! After the sugar was rolling and temp at 300 degrees, I poured it onto a sheet of marble and shaped it to resemble water in a tub full of bubbles! All the bubbles are icing as well. The Ducks are actually CHOCOLATE! Found them at Target! Great find!

The shower was a thought that just kept coming..... you know those thoughts?? It is a dowel and a carved Styrofoam ball for the shower head all covered with fondant. The water is very thin wire with clear piping gel stuck to the wire and left alone to harden. The big bubbles (yes, on sticks that you can see through the bubbles), and the letters 'It's A Boy', are gum paste!

A Few Thoughts About the Cake!

Here are a couple cakes that were made just to be eaten!! Pretty doesn't always have to be fondant with decorations stuck in it!

Flavor is a VERY important part of EVERY cake.

Make it moist and Just Sweet enough!

Something that looks good to the eye, MUST taste better than it looks!!

So, we as cake decorators must always think on what happens

when the cake is cut and the first bites are taken!

VERY IMPORTANT!!

Fairy Tinkerbell Birthday Cake

It's a Tinkerbell Birthday

For Sweet little Mya!

(click on photos to see detail and flaws)I must say that this was REALLY fun!

The key to a cake like this is TAKE YOUR TIME and START EARLY!

This cake is CHOCOLATE, with Buttercream Frosting. One little surprise was that The filling was an M&M and Cookies & Cream candy bar!! YUMMY!

Gum paste items include: Tink, Stars, and flowers. I think what makes this one so fun is the swirls in the night sky! The cakes starts at the bottom in the daylight with the green grass, flowers growing and blue sky, turning to night, stars and TINKERBELL!

MYA is 4! Happy Birthday Mya!

(Thanks for letting me come to your party!)

Pink, for a baby girl!

This is a 6, 8, 10" cake.

Crumb iced with buttercream and covered with Fondant.

I used pearl and silver color with my Kopykake Airbrush! Mine is the Kroma-Jet style.

Oh I love that airbrush! It is very old! I have had it since 1980 and it is still going strong! Fondant takes spray color so well and dries fast.

I love the old fashioned Baby Buggy.

Crazy friends & Crazy Cake!

This cake was made with 3 12x18 and 3 8x12 sheet cakes. They were baked and stacked and sculpted to make the shape of a slot machine. A box lid was covered with black fondant to make the coin tray. Little LED lights were positioned to show that, yes, Bill you hit the Jackpot! All extra pieces were created from fondant and let harden. The handle was covered tinker toys (thanks to my neighbor, JAX for that idea)

I also made a dozen jumbo cupcakes with POKER CHIPS on top to decorate around the cake!

Thanks guys, you are the best!
