Rose Cupcakes

Click the pictures to enlarge.
These are vanilla cupcakes topped with vanilla buttercream.  The buttercream was tinted two types of pink.  Using a piping bag, I made the buttercream look like a rose.  Every few cupcakes was then topped with a white sparkly gumpaste butterfly.

Gnome Cake

I made this cake for a friend of mine.  Her Aunt was turning 50 and she wanted a birthday cake.  My friend told me, "My Aunt LOVES gnomes".  And I was like "Gnomes, huh?  I can do that!"  Meanwhile all I was thinking was... How in the heck am I going to make a gnome cake?!  After some researching online and after finding some inspiration, I came up with this cake.  Everything is 100% edible.  From the fence planks, to the snails, to the mushrooms.  Even the gnomes and their signs!  A lot of work was put into this cake, but when it was done, it became one of my favorites.
