Let's sum up a year in one post!

I am a blogger fail I know... but I have been busy the past year and have made quite a few cakes that I am pretty proud of... pics!



The cake that started it all... this was my very first theme cake and my first time playing with fondant. I made it last November for a friends birthday... its Green Lantern.. :D On the side I piped "in blackest night, in brightest day"



Second theme cake I made. It's all glossy because I had just finished painting the can silver. This was also a birthday cake for a friend who LOVES Diet Coke. It was also a german chocolate cake which was very hard to cover smoothly!



This is a LOST island cake I made for my husbands birthday in July. He is obsessed with LOST so he was pretty happy. The top says "Happy Birthday <3 Ben" because Ben is is favorite character on the show. The water is made out of sugar melted down and colored blue. That was really fun to do, I have never gotten to play with sugar before!



I made this cake for a cake contest for www.threadless.com. The goal was to make a cake based on a t-shirt design. Of course I didn't win, but this was a super fun cake to make!





The most recent cake I have made.. another birthday cake. We have a running joke that our friend Josh loves Italian food... so I made him a spaghetti cake! And he loves the Cowboys so of course the spaghetti should be in a Dallas Cowboys bowl!

I have another cake to make this week and I am really excited. I get to play with modeling chocolate on this one so we will see how that goes!
