Gingerbread House '06

The concentration on their little faces is priceless.

So this year we opted for the pre-made house again. It is just easier that way with kids. Unfortunately I did not get a finished photo of the house this year. I am sure it had something to do with the craziness of the holidays :) So I decided to put pictures of the kids decorating the house.

Kaela's 5th Birthday

Once Upon a 5th Birthday!!

Anne's Baby Shower

I was asked to do a baby shower cake for a friend. I had just completed the Wilton courses, so I was excited to take on the project. This cake is a variation from one of the Wilton course books. I used the basket weave tip for the baby buggy, the little girls face is fondant, and the daisies were made from royal icing.

Wilton Course III

My final project for Wilton Course III class. I had to make a wedding cake. I learned how to use fondant, and stack or pillar cakes. I chose to do a pillar cake. The top cake was yellow with chocoate filling, covered with marshmallow fondant. The bottom cake was chocolate with vanilla filling, covered with marshamallow fondant. The roses are made from marshmallow fondant. The top cake was decorated with a simple pearl like design. The bottom cake was decorated with cornelli lace.

Wilton Course II

This cake was the final cake I had to make for the Wilton II course. Throughout this course I learned how to make different flowers, do basketweave decorating and make color flow pieces (the birds). The end result was bringing everything I learned into one cake. This was a yellow cake filled with chocolate, and iced with buttercream frosting. Joe's work got to "enjoy" my hard work.

Wilton Course I

These are my cakes from Wilton Course I class that I took during Summer 2006. The horseshoe was for a co-worker who was leaving for a new job. It was a yellow cake with buttercream frosting. The flower cake was a strawberry cake with whipped icing. It was enjoyed by my family.
