Pink Purse

Inspired by "Planet Cake".  

For a custom design, I used the Birthday Girl's initials for the brand "logo".  Chocolate Cake with Chocolate Buttercream, covered in Vanilla & Chocolate Fondants.  Handles are not edible.

Wine Crate

Wedding Shower Cake. Wine bottles were created as a cake topper with custom labels loosely based on the winery at which the wedding would take place.

Sushi Revisited

White Chocolate Cake with Raspberry Buttercream.  I apologize for the slight blur to the photo, my aperture was way off.  Live and learn, live and learn.  I do love the lacquered look, though.  This cake was inspired by the ribbon on the cake board, white the design was based on a set of Sushi serving dishes I found online.  

Speed Limit "55"

This was my dad's birthday cake... on his 55th birthday, of course. Chocolate Cake with Vanilla Bean Buttercream & Fresh Strawberries, covered in vanilla fondant with black fondant accents.  The sign post was molded from rice krispy treats, then covered in fondant and painted with silver pearl dust & vodka.
