Charmed, I'm sure.

I made this cake for my friend Kristi's birthday. I tried a new spin on the gift box cake by making the lid out of gumpaste.



Inside the gift box was a fondant charm bracelet. It's hard to tell here, but it was brushed with shimmery silver dust so it was fancy. The charms are all "inspired" by Disney stuff, which the birthday girl loves.


The lid was a challenge because after I put the bow on, it started to collapse a bit. I had to do some re-engineering but it all worked out.

Aloha!

This cake was for my sister and bro-in-law's 15th wedding anniversary. They love Hawaii and I love Hawaii and I wanted to make a cake about Hawaii so it all worked out for everyone. The base had a grass skirt and the surfboards were hand-painted fondant.

Bunnies in the Meadow

This is a shower cake I did based on the bedding for the nursery.
