The creation of a cake..

It starts with a plan and/or idea...


Cake batter split into bowls


Take these colors..


Add a few drops..


Mix well.. and wah-la!


Place into pans.. (this cake is three layers)




Bake, frost and then time to refrigerate.


Meanwhile.. fondant I made the night before.. 


Add some color..




Frosting! 

Shortening, water and flavoring of choice..


Creamed together..


Add powdered sugar and beat until whipped.

Fluffy. :D


Color is added the same way..


Making the molds..

Rice Krispies treats. <3






All that white stuff?


Cornstarch.


Cake before grass is added.


And done.




And of course, my inside shot. <3


^_^

Just a look into things. Can't give away all my secrets. :P

So. This time..

This time, I'm going to try to capture pictures as I create cake magic. We'll see how that goes. (I am currently slacking.. XD)

In the meantime, enjoy some new artwork. <3

Magic: The Gathering card alters













I had two cakes lined up for December that didn't fall through. But the next cake I am going to tackle is a surprise cake for my brother's 23rd birthday. They grow up so fast..

(Christmas picture from '89 or '90.. guessing. Yep. It's okay to laugh. I did. o.O Matching sweaters? Really Grams? >.<)

 Pictures of cake as soon as I finish.

Hope you had a great Turkey Day!


So I made pumpkin rolls.. 


6 pans worth, to be exact. And they were all claimed and devoured. :P
Wish made me happy, since I spent hours on them.. made 8, with only one hitting the floor! :D

Favorite holiday dish, anyone? I can't pick just one. :[


Kissies until next time! <3

Chocolate cake..

Yes. Simple enough.


Anyone else find that disturbing? Homemade compared to store bought. :P
So not good for the waistline.. :o

(cell phone quality = great and I look terrible :D Yay. Dressing rooms.)



So I cheated and used the store bought for decorations only. :P
From scratch made icing and cake. Nothing like a good cup of joe in your chocolate cake and espresso in your icing. ;D I would have to say, for me not liking chocolate, it was delicious.


And.. half gone. ;D


Smirks until later! <3
