30 And Pregnant

Click the picture to enlarge.

My cousin turned 30 on March 2nd, so I decided to make her a fun cake.  A few weeks ago she found out she was pregnant so I wanted to play with that a little.  One of her favorite shows is '16 and Pregnant' so I took the logo, erased the 16, downloaded the font and added a 30 in place of it.  Clever huh?  I think so.

Super Mario Themed Cake

I had a lot of fun with this cake.  I was told to make a Super Mario themed cake and to just go crazy with it, and this is what I came up with.

Mario is made of edible paper, as well as the 'Happy Birthday Matteo' sign.  Along the sides I cut out hills with different shades of green gumpaste.  I then made blocks in brown and yellow and placed them randomly along the top to look like a Mario level.  I also made the flowers that are in the game.  I threw in some clouds, stars and mushrooms and wahla!  A Super Mario cake!

Spongebob Cake

Who lives in a pineapple under the sea?  Spongebob Squarepants!  Made this cake for a friend, of a friend.  When I was first told I had to do a Spongebob cake I said to myself "Easy.. it'll take me an hour!"  Yeah, okay.  I forgot how detailed Spongebob really was.  Overall, including baking and cooling, it took me 5 hours to do.  I'm pretty happy with how he turned out.  And apparently he was a big hit at the party.  Woohoo.

Harley-Davidson Cake

This cake was made for a man who really loves motorcycles and anything Harley-Davidson.  It's a simple 10" round which was decorated with gumpaste flames.  The topper is made of a 9" white gumpaste circle, an 8" orange gumpaste circle and the Harley-Davidson logo, which I hand cut.  The sign standing in the back is made up of gumpaste and stuck in the cake with dowels.  If I were a man, I'd love this cake!

Neon Sweet 16 Cake

Before I begin, please take no notice to the cotton balls!  Haha, I forgot to remove them before taking pictures!


This cake was for a neon themed sweet 16.  I was told to have fun with it and do whatever I felt like doing, and this is what I came up with!  In the end, I didn't like the bottom tier, but I love the top two. Every tier is covered completely in sparkles.  Even though you can't tell from the pictures, the cake sparkled from every angle.  Everything was made with fondant, except for the bow.  What do you think?!

Baby Butt Cake

I went into work and was told I had to do a baby butt cake.  I said to myself "Who would want to cut into a butt and eat it?!".  After I put my crazy thoughts aside, I got to work.  The customer didn't know if the baby was a boy or girl so I had to use gender neutral colors.  Brown, yellow, tan and baby green.  The babys butt and legs are made up of rice cereal treats and covered in fondant.  The feet are made entirely of fondant as well as the blanket on top of the babys butt.  The decorations along the bottom of the cake are made of gumpaste.  After this cake was finished, I fell in love.  I didn't want to give it up!
