More updates of cakes past

The three above cakes were made for my moms co-worker Justin. The basketball cake she ordered for his birthday, he played for a semi pro team in Seattle and he was #22. The cake is only 5" and the basketball on top is also cake. Bottom cake was iced in whipped cream and the BB was covered in fondant.

The strawberry cake was just for fun with an extra cake I had, it was white cake w/ strawberry mousse and white chocolate panels. Topped with fresh strawberries and chocolate drizzle.

The grass cake was another extra cake. chocolate cake w/ cherry filling iced in buttercream and topped with the grass tip and fondant flowers.

Both of these cakes were ordered for a co-workers daughters high school graduation. The small cake is vegan...it was my first. It was iced in a non diary buttercream. The larger cake was not vegan...chocolate cake w/ chocolate ganache and iced in buttercream. The Mercer Island HS logo was done in chocolate and the girls names in fondant. I learned with these cakes that red darkens and it sits. My burgandy turned a bit brown, thank goodness for understanding friends.

This was made for a co-workers 50th birthday, his wife called and ordered it as a suprise. The "Miss Budweiser" plaque was originally a pin that I recreated in chocolate. Cake was chocolate with chocolate ganache...yum!

Chocolate cake w/chocolate mousse and iced in buttercrea,. The crowd, Hannah Montana and the band are edible images. The "stage" is chocolate. This was a difficult cake as it was a hot summer and sugar and chocolate like to melt in that kind of heat. The birthday girl loved it.
