Atif's Happy Birthday

Just a plain chocolate cake covered in marbled chocolate fondant. Just to finish it off I put a big fondant bow around the whole cake. The little hearts aren't actually on the cake - I had covered the cake with the cellophane then remembered I hadn't taken the photo.

Dakota's Hello Kitty

Could a cake get any more girly? From the glittered base and #4, to the Hello Kitty and the tiny flowers, the whole cake just screamed - SWEET! I was very pleased with this cake and it all just came together so well. This is the first cake of many for this week. I have to make six cakes and 100 cupcakes. Wish me luck!

Ngaire's Old Witch

This was a last minute order. I tried to turn the lady down but when she said she owned a catering company and had steered a few people my way, it seemed the only thing I could do to thank her was to squeeze this cake in for her sister's birthday. Denise told me that she calls her sister the 'old witch' so it seemed like a good thing to go with for the cake. I was chuffed with how the witch turned out. The base icing was in blues, purples and pinks - trying for a sunset look.

Izzy's Care Bears

I don't usually use plastic figurines on my cakes, but these four cute little Care Bears were given to me and I was asked to make a cake for a three-year-old girl. They actually made the cake look lovely. I do like making the rainbow with the Happy Birthday and name on it. It looks very effective. I also added some toadstools and some creepers of flowers and leaves all over the cake. A beautiful cake.

Josh's Guitar

I am very pleased with the results of this cake. Everything turned out as I had imagined. The only problem I had was with the 'strings' as the wire I have wasn't long enough to put down in one continual line, so there were joins in the wires. It didn't seem to detract from the overall appearance though. I added the little side cake as there wasn't a lot of cake in the main cake once it had been cut into the shape of the guitar.

Fa'atiga's 30th

The specifications for this cake were for it to be in Rastafarian colours and to have a man "smoking" on the top. I loved the end result. The colours were a pleasure to work with - so bright, and the man came together really well. This was a really large cake and came with a side order of 100 cupcakes. A big job but the customer was rapt with her cake and cupcakes.

Sahana's Piano

The final cake for this weekend. The cake inside is a Black Forest with chocolate buttercream icing. I was fairly caked-out for ideas by time I got to this one, but I feel I covered all the requirements. I would have liked the edges to have been a bit sharper, but all in all the finished product wasn't too shabby!
