Mr Smiths Birthday Cake - If you have seen Mrs Smiths cake, then you know how hard this one was to make. Mrs Smiths cakes ROCK!!!
Ray went simple - white cake with buttercream icing from an old Wilton Home Instruction Class Notebook. Kinda funny that you could take the class via mail order. Quite tasty but a little harder to work with.
This was a last minute cake we made for a 1st birthday 'SMASH' cake. Apparently the pros mean it when they say let your cake sit more a day or 2. Sitting for 1 hour doesnt firm it up much :) It was a scratch white cake with buttercream icing. We didnt notice the edge icing was falling until we delivered it - oppss. Hopefully the little girl wont mind a little bit of a ruffled edge.
Due to time, Raymond wasnt able to make a 'fancy' cake for Dads bday. So he made a Stately Coconut Cake, orange/lemon filling with Boiled icing. It was quite tasty! He had bought a pack of 20 black candles for it - luckily it wasnt the 43 he needed - we probably would have had to call the fire department.
This was not a hard cake but a very time consuming cake. Used bundt cakes and fondant for icing. At one point there were 6 of us making fondant balls to smoosh and put on for scales. The young lady who this was made for has a similar looking snake named Skeeter.
This one was a little tricky - we were on vacation in a beach house. I brought the wrong tips and there were no supplies to make BC icing. So with store bought icing and one little tip R made this. We did manage to have a ball cake pan. I think he did good considering all the obstacles. :)
This cake was supposed to be the big topsy turvy cake but the # at the party changed so she downsized. It is for 2 girls 13th birthday. One cant have red dye so we opted for feathers instead. It is a 3 layer 9" strawberry cake with marshmallow fondant. Cake looks little in all those feathers :)
