This cake was made to look like an open book. I used a 9×13 pan with the open book pan on top giving me the shape I need. The page edges were brushed with gold petal dust. The cross was molded white chocolate, flowers were fondant. Cake flavor, chocolate with raspberry butter cream filling and iced in vanilla butter cream. A gold ribbon was used as a book marker.
Living here in golf country it seems the natural thing to do, have a baby shower theme with golf. This cake combines flowers with mini golf balls made of butter cream. The (11×15) yellow butter cake iced in a soft blue vanilla butter cream was squared off and each square was centered with a decoration. The flag & club were purchased.
This cake was made for a bridal luncheon where the groom was also invited but being in the Army they were not sure he would make it. The flavor was yellow butter cake with almond frosting, buttercream and fondant flowers. The Army emblem was a laminated image, the dog tags were fake (created by my son) added to the design. 
The wedding reception was held at the Fair Barn in Pinehurst, NC. This is such a great place to hold a party, the room is filled with natural light and has lots of space even for a dance floor. It looks equally pretty in the evening with the soft lighting.
The wedding cake had a simple wave design topped with a monogram B. Flavors were yellow butter cake filled with chocolate fudge frosting and iced in vanilla/almond buttercream. The flowers were from Maggie’s Farm.
The grooms cake (12×18 with a 9×13 on top). The flavor, chocolate with vanilla buttercream. Designed with a laminated ECU on top to celebrate the grooms school colors of purple and gold. Fondant stars were added for more color.
The tables were covered with beautiful dark purple cloths.
Orchids submerged in water. All flowers by Margaret at “Maggie’s Farm”
This cake celebrates 2 occasions. Since it’s Mother’s Day this weekend and her Mom’s Birthday, the customer wanted to celebrate both . Some call her Mom, to others she answers to Grammie. The 9 ” 3 layer yellow butter cake was iced in vanilla butter cream. Flowers are buttercream and fondant.
No black for this 40th birthday. Gina is a beautiful lady who loves color. 
So, since this was the 1st day of May, I made it with lots of bright flowers and a butterfly. Most of the flowers are butter cream with the smaller ones cut from fondant along with a fondant butterfly. The size 11×15, the flavor, a chocolate marble cake with vanilla butter cream frosting.
