The Naughtiest - I Mean Newest - Cake...

I made another cake this weekend. It turned out pretty well. Unfortunately, I can't post it here. Well.......I probably could..........but I have no doubt that it would be flagged or deleted or whatever is done to pictures like that.

This cake was for a bachelorette party. It was a part of a male's anatomy, and I must say that it was VERY realistic. There are actually pans shaped like those things! No, no, no - I don't own that kind of cake pan! What are you thinking?!?!? I borrowed it from a very good friend. :)

Anyway, I am trying to see if there is anywhere I can post it. Facebook is probably out of the question, and I don't know about myspace. After all, I might make these kind of cakes, but I am too nice of a girl to have a facebook or myspace profile like that! ;)

If you want to see a picture, leave me your email address in a comment, and I will send you one.

Another Boobie Cake

This boob cake has a surgical mask for a bra. It was for a medical professional's birthday that reads mammograms. The luscious ta-tas were a little big for the "bra," so I had to add some fringe to get everything covered. Notice how there are no nipples on this one. I had to censor it for the kids. :) To see the other boobie cakes, click here.

Christmas Cakes

These are all from last year. I will post this year's cakes as soon as I finish all the baking.

Halloween Cakes

Here is my most recent cake - a Halloween cake. This was for an auction or a cakewalk or something...I don't know. Anyway, it was for a Halloween carnival last week.

I used the 11x 15 pan and cut the cake in half for stacking.














The spider is made from pieces of the cake tops that I stacked and cut with a round biscuit cutter. It had to be shaped up a little with a knife.

Also...it is REALLY hard to find black licorice, thus the use of the green and orange Twizzler spider legs.







Here is a Pumpkin cake that I make after I first started decorating cakes. I am not sure what Iwas thinking with the black ring around the edge....

Here we go -- this one's a little better.

A spider birthday cake from last year. How cool to have your birthday on Halloween!

This was for a Halloween party last year. The spider's legs were made from pretzels that I covered with black buttercream icing.

Lady Bugs

Here is a picture of a some cupcakes I made for a seven year old's birthday party. The cupcakes are different sizes. The flower lollypops in the "grass" cupcakes are made of white chocolate, so YES - they are edible...YUM!

This cake was just for fun. It was going to be a lady bug, but I did not realize at the time that I was out of red coloring for my icing. Thus, the yellow bug. The cake was lemon flavored, so I guess it was appropriate. I took it to work - the teachers devoured it!

Girly Cakes

When I started making cakes about a year ago, I had no idea how many "girly" cakes I would be faced with. Most of these are freebies, here. The first one was a cake that a co-worker wanted for a friend.

This cake was a last minute freebie for a pre-teen girl's birthday. I thought it turned out ok, but I really need to work on my letter spacing...maybe next time I will be able to fit the entire word Birthday on the cake.

Well, there is nothing more girly than unicorns and rainbows. The cracked icing is from the crazy humidity at this outdoor party for a four year old.

Princess = girls. Enough said.

Awww....hearts. How sweet - and girly. :)

More princess paraphernalia.

And the matching cupcakes...

I can't remember who this cake was for. No doubt the customer was female.

Here is a surprise birthday cake for a friend's daughter who is in her 20s. All girls love pink!
And, even though I know many of you are not fans of the cupcake cake, my curiousity got the better of me, and I had to try one out. I know it is not my best work, but delicious anyway. We had fun eating the strawberry filled yellow cupcakes.

All Things Chocolate...

Everyone loves chocolate, right? Yummy!
Here are my cakes that have some kind of chocolate ...ummm...something about them.

This is a triple chocolate fudge cake with chocolate ganache filling, AND chocolate butter cream icing. This is a chocolate cake with chocolate butter cream icing.

There is nothing better than a big chocolate horse - HA!!

Baby Shower Cakes

These are some baby shower cakes that I have made over the past year. Just as in my other posts, some are better than others. It is easy to see the areas that I need to work on. Like the writing on the one below. I was pleased with the rest of the cake. It was made to match the invitation.
This cake was for a co-worker that was having her fourth baby. Finally a girl! Next time I will not mix fondant feet with butter cream icing.

Yes - this is actually a baby shower cake. The bedding for the baby to be was black and white. The pattern on the linens was toile, however, I was not ready to tackle that. Thank goodness the bed skirt was polka dotted!

These next two pictures are from a shower cake, however, I did not choose the color scheme. I was pleased with the fondant baby.

College Cakes

Sometimes (and usually during football season) someone will want a "college cake." I have only done two of these. One cake was decorated with the logo for Texas Tech, and the other was with the University of Texas logo.

I guess next time I will have to do a purple cake for Stephen F. Austin. Axe' em Jacks!!

TV and Cartoon Cakes

Obviously, my family can not eat as much cake as I like to make. I mean - we could, but really, that would not be a good move. To remedy this dilemma, I started making cakes for the kids at my school. (If you didn't know, I am a teacher - a music teacher, so I see a lot of different classes.) This gives me a lot of decorating practice, although I sometimes rush through the process.

Now, I know what some of you must be thinking... "What...making cakes for kids at school? What is wrong with these crazy teachers???"

This actually works out in my favor. Each class has to earn a cake through a reward system that I have. (I will not bore you with the complicated details.) Anyway, I do try to make it educational - we take a vote on what flavor of cake and how it will be decorated. We talk about the voting process and all kinds of educational things. : )

Anyway - back to the original train of thought - most classes want some kind of cake with a cartoon character on it. Some of these cakes have turned out well, and some have not. See for yourself.

Tom and Jerry - I rushed this one, but it isn't horrible for a "bribe" cake. (Except that Jerry's face may need a little work.) I used the piping gel transfer method.

A blast from the 1980s! Alvin and the Chipmunks for a second grade class.

Of course - Kids love Spongebob Square Pants! (Only he has no pants here!)

Ok - this was not a cake for school kids, but since Hannah Montana is on TV, I though I would post it on this blog. This was a birthday cake for a nine year old girl. I thought it turned out pretty well, but I was having some icing issures that day. It just didn't stick well and peeled off the cake.

Self-explanatory. Spiderman. He is the coolest superhero. Duh.

This was baked in the Wilton Spiderman pan.

The cupcakes are a result of leftover cake batter and icing that I could not throw out. The webs are not as great as I wanted, but at least the cake was recognizable.

This was just for fun. My family wanted cake, and I had a new pan. Voila! Yo Sammity Sam!

(Don't look at the spacing of the letters...yikes! At least it tasted good. Like I said - this was just to fulfill a cake craving.)

Tinkerbell - this was my first cake in a shaped pan. Yeah, I know - she has a tan.

Another pants-less Spongebob. This one is better that the other one.

Car Cakes

Since I started decorating cakes about a year ago, I have made several car cakes. These are all made from Wilton shaped character pans. The Speedracer cake was baked in the Nascar pan. Hopefully I will learn the art of cake carving one of these days. That sure would free up a lot of space in my kitchen not having all of those shaped pans.
