The ducks

This is the first attempt at the ducks. I got done and wasn't happy with it. I felt like it was missing something. So I set it aside and started cleaning up my mess trying to figure out what it needed. Then it his me........ A SAND CASTLE!!! But how, hhhmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.




So... I used my "sand" added a little butter used my cake tips for the form and made a sand castle. It is the first and most likely the last one I will ever make that actually stays standing. My niece loved it, and now has three awesome ducks to play with, what more could you ask for.

True Feelings on V-Day

So this is how I really feel about Valentines day....I imagine Quipped flying around pooping on everyone!!!!! No just kidding! I am taking a decorating class and the instructor told us to practice at home. So I made a cake with my assistant(my niece). To decorate it I figured I would be festive. The only cookie cutter I could find that was valentinish was the Quipped. After I did the million stars that fill him my niece decided we weren't done, so I figured I could practice my dots. NOT paying attention to where I started practicing I went for it, then, I got board with the dots. My niece wanted her familys name on there, so I comply as I always do, and TA DA we are finished. So I tell my niece to go get her mom and dad and tell them it is time for cake and her mother tells me "it looks like quipped is pooping!" Then she made me take a picture of it and post it. So here is my node to Valentines day. Enjoy!!!!

Barn

I had a request for a cowgirl with a horse and a cowboy with a cow... and this is what I came up with. The cake is actually 3 cakes all together, Super heavy. The kids loved it and couldn't stop looking at it.

This is the close up. The funny lumps that are a little different color of green are supposed to be hay bells. And yes, I know the walls are falling. Papa said it is just an old barn that needed to be eaten, and that is what we did to it.








I almost forgot I need to give credit to the people that helped me with this monstrosity............ Hilary, Brian, and Papa. Thank you for helping me make an awesome cake.
