Buster the Bunny

This was my first entry in a chocolate sculpture competition. I was pleased at the outcome of "Buster" -- the theme was "My Favorite Holiday." It was a fun experience. I also entered the candy competition and my White Chocolate Pistachio Butter Toffee won first prize. It was a great confidence boost for my myself and my friend Rose who also won with her delicious Truffles.

"Now, That's One Big Fish!"

This cake was created for a surprise birthday party and the guest of honor had just gone deep sea fishing and caught a 50lb. Mai Mai so it had to be the theme for the cake. The fish's head and boat were both covered crispy treat, and the water was 1/2 marbled cake with chocolate buttercream filling and 1/2 white chocolate cake with strawberry filling.

Monkey Business

This cake was to coordinate with the baby shower invitation. I added a little blue blanky for the monkey! The cake was red velvet with cream cheese and the bottom was white with raspberry.

Shelia

This wedding cake was inspired by a photo that the bride and groom provided. The color scheme was navy blue, white and sliver which I love for this time of year. Applique fondant white flowers and leaves were brushed with pearl luster lust and sliver dragees were added to the centers. Cake was red velvet cake with Irish cream buttercream, almond cake with milk chocolate buttercream and dark chocolate cake with strawberry buttercream filling.

Ballet Shoes

This sweet cake was to celebrate the performance of dancer that was in a production of the Nutcracker. Cutout ballet shoes of tinted white chocolate then were "painted" with two different tones of pink luster dust.

Birthday Girls!

This cake was to combine birthdays for two ladies who have been close friends since childhood. Each birthday girl is shown doing something that they were involved with from an early age -- playing the piano and twirling the baton. The cake is the "wooden" base which is dark chocolate cake with raspberry filling covered with milk chocolate. The piano is also cake without filling but covered with tinted white chocolate. Each birthday girl is also created out of chocolate. I love the expression of the piano player -- totally into her music!!

Monkey Ship!

This pirate ship mimics a popular party invitation that has a pirate ship in shades of blue with a monkey captain and parrot as firstmate! I have created this cake a couple times but not in three--I'm very please at the outcome! Boat is tinted white chocolate which covered a marbled cake of yellow and chocolate. Monkey and parrot were both created out of chocolate with the sail made out of fondant.
