Wizard of Oz Cake


I will admit that this was not the first birthday cake I made for my dear Mum, I did in fact spend two days creating a fantastic topsy turvy cake only for my 5 year old daughter to knock it off the kitchen table. I was then left with 1 day to come up with a special cake. As my Mum is such a big fan of the Wizard of Oz I decided t orecreate the yellow brick road and those magical red slippers in cake form. The rainbow is compltely sugarcraft held together by florist wire. I also dusted the slippers in dustre dust to give them their sparkle!
Footprint Christening Cake

This cake was made for my youngest sons blessing. I had decided I definetly wanted a cake with footprint detail and that I wanted the footprints to be both blue and white as he had been a twin. I decided to make a two tier stacked cake. The bottom tier is 10'' fruit cake and the top tier is a 8'' sponge cake. I brushed the footprints and and love hearts with lustre dust to creat the shine and sparkle!

Manolo Blahnik Shoe & Box Birthday Cake

The one thing my friend says she would buy as soon as she wins the lottery is a pair of Manolo Blahnik shoes. Unfortunately I wasn't in the position to get her a real pair for her birthday but I thought a cake version would be the next best thing. The shoe is entirely edible and made from sugarpaste.
Space Rocket Birthday Cake


This cake was made for a friend of mine's husband. He has always been a big fan of space and rockets to I thought it was quite fittings to name the rocket after him. To create the trocket I used an 11'' square cake and then cut to the appropriate shape. I decided to leave the front of the ship quite round to provide more cake.
High School Musical Birthday Cake

After seeing my cakes and booking an expensive party at the Build A Bear Factory my friend asked if I could possible make a cae for her daughter. As she was turning 6 and a massive High School Musical fan I decided to attempt those famous High School Musical curtains which I think turned out rather well
Lightning McQueen Birthday Cake
Little Einsteins Rocket Cake

Seen as how I had decided to make my sons birthday cake I thought I would go mad and make two. One for Mothers & Toddlers and one for the family. This is his first cake and as he is mad on Little Einsteins I decided to attempt Rocket. I made a two tier stacked cake and then decorated to resemble the character. I also borrowed a few of my sons figures to add to the cake.
Racing Car Birthday Cake

Now being aged 66 you would think my Uncle was a little old to be requesting a birthday cake, but just like the kids he waned a cake and he knew what he wanted. My Uncle has always loved Ralley Driving and requested I make him a Racing Car with his age on it. Thankfully I was able to disguise his age as the Ralley No:
Star Explosion Birthday Cake
My Cakes

Hi guys!
At the bginning of March I decided to make my sons birthday cake as I was no longer willing to pay large sums of money to a stranger for the pleasure. My cake was such a hit I have now started baking cakes for family and friends. It is hard to believe that in the space of 2 1/2 months I have gone from never having baked to making 9 cakes and still more to come.
Hope you enjoy looking at my cakes
