Doggie and Baby

A few weeks back i took a course on how to make a baby and a dog. The class i took this at was courtesy of http://thecaketutor.com/ These two ladies know their stuff and they make the class so much fun!

You get to let your creative juices flow when making such cute little figurines. I decided to give the dog more of a shaggy look. (I need to work on that a bit more.) For the baby i added a couple of bottom teeth on her!

I thought i'd share a couple of pictures of the final results of my baby and dog! I hope i get a request to either do a baby or dog cake, they are just so cute!

These figurines are made out of Fondant!

If you're ever in the KW(Ontario) and want to learn how to make these cute little figurines, check out their classes section on their site. They offer a variety of classes each month!

Football anyone?

For those who watch or play football this is a cake you'll love! This cake was done for our friend's Annual Superbowl party, Colts vs. Saints! The bottom cake was a traditional white cake, the football is chocolate cake. Both covered with Buttercream. I never got a chance to have a piece of this cake as that weekend my little girl was really sick and had a fever all weekend. I did take her out for a bit as i was going a bit stir crazy. From what i heard the cake was delicious and i'm glad everyone got a chance to try it.

Flavor-of-the-month....Chocolate and Red!

Each month http://bakeat350.blogspot.com/ does a Flavor of the month! This month was chocolate, of course one of my favorite things to eat. :D

I had some friends over the other night and had red velvet cake that was in the freezer so i decided to make little individual cakes. I put red chocolate melts drizzled with chocolate ganache. These were the leftovers and boy were they good!

Brown and Pink

This is a cake that i made for a Bridal Shower. The Bride isn't a fan of fondant so i did it covered in chocolate ganache. The top tier is Red Velvet and the bottom is chocolate. The roses are made out of Gumpaste, with ribbon around the edges and pearl Draggies around the two cakes. The roses were dusted with Pink Petal dust as well. I have yet to perfect my smoothing skills with ganache. But i think i did a pretty good job.

Cake Anyone?

Chocolate/vanilla cake w/ a really bad chocolate ganache recipe. All flowers and leaves are made out of gumpaste. The flowers are dusted with Edible Rainbow dust. These can be found at www.icinginspirations.ca
