Buzz Lightyear
I was so nervous to make this 3D Buzz. I wanted to get his features just right.
The client who ordered it loved it so much that he gave me my next challenge that same day. Stay tuned later for my rendering of a dirt bike. I have my fingers crossed that it goes well.

St Patrick's Day birthday
A dear friend of mine has a St Paddy's day birthday and she lives to far away from me to enable me to give her a cake. I wanted to try out a new recipe for Key Lime cake and Lime curd filling, so I dedicated the cake to her and sent her the pictures. My family and my neighbors enjoyed the cake in Janie's honor.
Beauty and the Beast
Here's my newest princess cake. I find I have so much trouble getting faces just right. I think that Belle looks a bit concerned in my icing rendering. Olivia turned 3 and she loved the picture so that's what was important.
Canucks Fan hockey rink
My same client who ordered the Football field, ordered this hockey rink for another son of hers who's favorite team is the Canucks.
The 3D hockey puck was so close to the size of a real one. I am loving using cake ball mix these days for 3D work. It's so easy to mold.

Pretty pink bow
This one was so quick and easy. I am loving making these types of bows lately. They are easy and quick to do if you are using Gumpaste.
Hello Kitty
This rendering of Hello Kitty is not my best modeling work, but it's ok for a first attempt. The cake design was based on a cake that the client saw somewhere and she switched out the colors to match her party colors.

Football field
I was really happy with how this one turned out. The football is a large cake ball, covered in fondant. The field is all decorated with icing, and I decided to try out the grass border to finish the field off nicely. My customer has 4 boys into different sports and so the next cake she ordered is for a hockey theme. I'm wondering now what the other 2 will get later in the year.
Baby Shower
Here's a quick little cake for a baby shower. I really like the way that the little buttons on the stitching look when its done right with my cutter/embosser.
The ball border around the bottom is the part that takes the most time and I usually just fake it with an icing bead border but I had so much blue fondant left that I figured I should use some of it up. I do like the way that it looks when done, but my patience sure gets tested while rolling out all of them.
