Cowboy Cake

Monday, June 22nd, 2009

Howdy Y’all :)   Here’s a little cowboy cake I made up for a friend.  Based on some ADORABLE party ware she found online. I’ve included a pic of the plate below to show what I based it off of.  The cake is iced in buttercream and the “bandanna” and hat are cut out of fondant.  The cake board itself is fondant covered and decorated with brown cow spots to match the cowboy’s attire.  The brown didn’t show quite right in color in my photos.


Party plate design…

Whimsical fun

Its mid June … so time for the next work birthday cake for my hubby…  I confess I spaced out that it was THIS week until he reminded me on Tue!  Oooops!  But I planned out the idea (based on another cake I had seen and loved) in an hour and started baking the next day.  The actual decorating flew by faster than I thought it would.  And the result is as fun as I hoped! :)   This 3 tier cake is made up of 4″, 6″ & 8″ cakes, fondant covered and the accents out the top are gumpaste.



Graduation time!

Its that time of year…so many great accomplishments.  Congrats to all the graduates out there.  Today’s cake is a high school graduate who also is an avid hockey player.  School colors were maroon/white and the hockey colors blue/white.  This cake is a 10″ – 12″ tiered cake.  The grad cap on top is gumpaste (and edible).  Everything is edible :)   Well except the support dowels ;-)
