So this was my first attempt at using fondant. It is definatly not perfect, but I love how it turned out. And more importantly, my two year old son, absolutly loved it. He was so excited about the suckers.
Alexas birthday was coming up and I wanted to do a beautiful cake for her, with gumpaste flowers. So this was my practice cake, and I surprised Curtis with it, when he got home from work. It was delicious, thanks to my friends Danyette and Justine, who I got the recipes from. The flowers were so fun to make!
This one was Alexas birthday cake. I really liked how it turned out. She helped me design it. She wanted butterflies, so if you can tell, I added butterflies in with the sqwiggles. And I love the touch of ribbon. It made it all come together so beautifully, and it hid my ugly mistakes:)
We had a family birthday party for all the July and August birthdays. I had left over cake and fondant from Alexas cake, so Shanae and I decided to decorate a cake. Shanae did a wonderful job of covering the cake with fondant and doing the swirls, and she even helped me make the flowers. She was a natural!I think my family is excited about my new passion. Cake for everyone!!

CUTE! You do such a good job! Love them all, it's too hard to pick a favorite.
I don't believe it...you didn't make those cakes! They look to professional! :) well, it's actually not to surprising you can make beautiful cakes too, considering you can do all things artistic, and do them great!
