Previews...

One of the funnest part of making cakes for a living? Creating fun characters to decorate them with. Each one is hand made, unique and new learning experience.


My first cat created for an upcoming birthday cake. The cake design requires two of them, but here is one of two done and ready to go.

                                           aww I'm glad I won't be there to see him get eaten :(

This next piece was more of a struggle. I was hoping to find some pointers online, but was unsuccessful, so I tried to go at it on my own. She didn't turn out all that bad, but her arms started cracking when I moved them and well her dress still needs a lot of work, but I'm pretty sure I'll be able to bring it all together :) On that note, if anyone has taken classes on this and wants to teach me, I'm all for it! There only seems to be lessons for this in Toronto, no Ottawa :(




And finally the "boob" cake which is now done apart from the trim along the bottom. I was getting this cake done in a record time,I finished all of my baking and came up to check what the icing choice was only to read the first line which stated dairy free.....of course I had forgotten this little detail in my process and had made a moist cake with milk and butter, both not acceptable for this cake. So after a few moments of sulking, I started over and a few hours later, we have the final product!

  I blurred out the name here since this cake has not yet been picked up and I wouldn't want to ruin any surprises.

And the funnest part of this cake is the fact that the bra isn't glued on so that you remove it before eating and get an eye full ;)


This is one entertaining cake ;)

More to come tomorrow when my topsy turvy sweet 16 cake is all done!
