Hawaiian Luau First Birthday Cake

This is the 3rd beach cake that I've made like this.  I guess I really like the way it looks.

A view of the top.

Here is the "smash cake"

They wanted cupcakes too so I made chocolate shells to go on top.

Boy Scout Camp Cake

I made this cake last year after Scout camp for one of the boys in the troop.  I forgot to snap a picture of it at home so they snapped a picture at the church at scouts so not the best angle but still okay.   The grey rectangle is a rock hockey court and of course I had to put a little blue Frog Togg on there too.

Camera Cake

I am a bit intimidate with carved cakes but this one wasn't too bad to make.  I thought about making the lens out of crispy treats but in the end I went with cake and I think it came out pretty good.

Supergirl Cake

A view from the back

This was a fun cake to make.   The bottom is Wonder Woman, of course, with her lasso of truth and then I put her crown on the top.  The middle layer is supergirl and when you turn the cake you see her cape on the back.

Gymnastics Cake

This cake was for a little girl in gymnastics.  I didn't have very much time to make this cake so I couldn't make anything complicated like a balance beam- which would have taken a few days to dry so I just kept it simple and made the little girl doing a straddle.  Hopefully it was gymnastics enough. 

Teacher Appreciation Cakes

These cakes are far from perfect but all of the teachers loved them.  Jacob's teacher was even kind enough to cut the first book and share it with the class.  We made chocolate with Oreo filling and white almond with strawberry filling, YUM!

Nautical Cake

 Navy blue fondant is a very hard color to make, even worse than black. I used a lot, the whole bottle in fact, of Americolor navy food coloring and I had to mix in a little black to get it to not look like royal blue.  I need to practice a bit more to get chevron perfect but over all I like the cake.  This is for a baby shower but it could really be for any occasion.

I bought this onesie cutter about 3 years ago.  I have been waiting for the chance to use it.
