The Knights

This cake was made as a favor to my husband. His boss's father was coming in town to meet with a group of his high school friends. This cake represents their high school fraternity (the Knights), symbol (the shield), and colors (black and gold). The "Skip" written on the cake is LSU's own Skip Bertman. I'm an LSU fan so I think that's pretty cool.
The cake is chocolate and it's filled and iced with chocolate buttercream icing. The cake is decorated with fondant and piped with black buttercream icing.

Operation...buzzz

This cake was made for the employee picnic at the hospital that I work for. It's a replica of the famous and fun game Operation. The cake is butter pecan and the filling is butter pecan mousse. It's iced with almond buttercream icing and it decorated with fondant.

Kentucky Derby Hat

Another co-worker was leaving us and moving to Kentucky. And what could be more Kentucky than the Kentucky Derby? No self respecting southern lady could attend the Kentucky Derby without having a proper hat to wear...well, in this case, eat.

This was a chocolate cake with chocolate icing covered in white fondant. The daisies and fantasy flowers are made of a mixture of gumpaste and fondant.

Transformer

My nephew Christian's 6th birthday was in February and he loves Transformers. I made a chocolate cake with chocolate filling. It was iced with almond buttercream icing. The Transformer logo was made of fondant and sprinkled with red shimmer sugar.

Happy retirement Julie

On of my co-workers was retiring and I made her a cake. This one was a white cake with buttercream icing. The daisies are made of gumpaste.

Mardi Gras Birthday Cake

This cake was made for 2 sisters, Maddie & Olivia, who both celebrate their birthdays during Mardi Gras season.

It's a 3 tiered yellow cake filled with strawberry preserves. The cake is decorated with yellow almond flavored buttercream icing. The final touches on each tier are made from purple and green fondant.

It's a Boy!

This cake was for my best friend Rebecca's baby shower. It's a 3 tiered yellow cake with almond buttercream icing as the filling. It's covered with a thick layer of almond buttercream then decorated with white and blue fondant.
