This was a birthday cake I made for Brittney, a hardcore Twilight fanatic :) It was a chocolate cake made to look like an actual Twilight book. I couldn't get a good picture of the sides so here's the cover. I hand painted the title by dissolving a little silver luster dust with vodka. I'm one of those people who could never draw hands :( In elementary school I would always draw hands as mittens or little circles.. haha. So it took forever for me to make these hands look decent!! The apple is also made out of fondant. I shaded it by dabbing a little black food coloring on a damp sponge and lightly brushing it across the hands and apple to create a shadow effect.
This is my nephew Isaiah's 3rd birthday cake. It's a half sheet made up of two layers of vanilla cake, vanilla buttercream, and fresh strawberries between the layers. I used a grass piping tip for the top of the cake, Oreo cookie crumbs as the pavement, and some of Isaiah's Disney Cars toys as toppers. My sister bought some last minute mini chocolate cupcakes from the store to fill up the space on the sides (the board I bought was too big..). The cake was a hit at Isaiah's Cars-themed party!
Here's a funny cake I made for my boyfriend Norvin on his 22nd birthday last year. The top of the cake is supposed to resemble his hair (he used to have really spikey hair). The spikes are made out of fondant I shaped into narrow cones. It's a chocolate cake with Oreo buttercream between the layers. Mmm...Hope you liked these! I'll post more later :)
