First Communion Cake

Cameron - gumpaste plaque painting. Terri - cake - chocolate with vanilla buttercream.

Peter Rabbit

Forgive me for posting so many pictures of this one, but it was hard to show it in one or two. This was for a baby shower and the baby's nursery theme is Peter Rabbit. The plaques tell the story of Peter Rabbit. We had some very special help with this one. Our friends Shannon and Marcus (excellent artists) along with Cameron hand-painted (with food coloring) these gumpaste plaques. Cameron did the large hex on the top with the raised gumpaste Mother and Peter figures. It definitely ranks as one of my favorites. Cake- White Almond Sour Cream and raspberry Swiss Meringue Buttercream filling. Vanilla Swiss Meringue Buttercream covered the hex cake. Vines and flowers SMB as well. Thank you so much Shannon, Marcus and Cameron for your outstanding artistry. We all learned a lot!

Ivey Airlines

This was for our neighbor whose husband is a commercial pilot. They are having a boy and are decorating the nursery w/airplanes. The "flight plan" included: Flight No: (3 for 3rd child), Passenger (baby's name), Destination (our neighborhood name), Arrival (the due date), Pilot (mommy's name), Co-pilot (daddy's name) and Flight Attendants (sisters' names). Cameron again did a fabulous job on the plane. Cake is chocolate w/ chocolate buttercream. Other decorations fondant. (Flight plan printed on the computer!)

American Flag

This was made for a presentation we had on the Founding Fathers. Chocolate mini-cupcakes topped with chocolate icing and then decorated with red, white and blue buttercream.

Macaw

Cameron did another outstanding job on this gumpaste Macaw complete with birdseed. Chocolate cake/mocha buttercream and buttercream flowers.
