Larissa's Fairy, Butterfly and Flowers

This is the cake that put me in a spin. I had it marked down for May instead of April and if Karen hadn't rung me on Thursday night enquiring how it was all going, I would have experienced my worst nightmare and would have had a customer arriving at my door with no cake ready for them. Thankfully she did ring and I managed to put together this cake with a 24-hour turnaround. Not something I would want to do every day. As you can see, I was in such a rush that I forgot to remove the pins holding the fairies to the cake when I took the photo. I did remove them before I sent the cake away though.

Lily's Rabbit and Fairy

So cute! I have done Lily's birthday cake now for three years and it's wonderful to see her growing up from a 1-year-old to a now 3-year-old with her own likes and dislikes. This year she was specific in what sort of cake she wanted - pink - so the top tier of this cake is strawberry flavour. I love the toadstools, and the rabbits, and the little fairy Lily, and the flowers, and the rainbow. Yes, I loved everything about this cake.

Shiloh's Fairy, Flowers and Butterflies

I did everything that I was asked to do for this cake ... in pinks and mauves. The end result was very girly and beautiful. Only problem was this wasn't the cake the customer meant. She wanted a different design. Oops! Thankfully they were also happy with this cake but I must make sure to understand the type of cake wanted next time.

Isla's Tinkerbell

I was so pleased with how this one turned out. The Tinkerbell is made by me out of gumpaste and was really sweet. The little fairies around the outside of the cake were plastic models supplied by Isla's mother.

Micaela's Fairy Toadstool

Always a favourite and so much fun to make.

Bella's Fairy, Flowers and Mermaid

A variation on the Fairy, Flower and Butterfly cake.

Lara's Fairy House

My worst nightmare cake. It fell in half during delivery and all I could do was show pictures of how it looked at it's best. We managed to tart it up, but it didn't look the same. Money was refunded and Lara still thought it was the most beautiful cake she had ever seen.

Emma's Fairy Garden

This whole cake was sprayed with edible pearl spray and it looked really nice - it shone.

Shae's Fairy, Butterfly & Flowers - $130

What can I say - this cake has jumped to the head of the line where favourites is concerned. I love, love, love the colours. Another thing different is the fairy wings. I am using a new fabric and sequin wing set rather than the leaves I was using before. These are so superior and look just right. I want to do more of these cakes as this one was so enjoyable to make.

Jessica's Fairy House - $130

An oldie but a goodie. I haven't made one of these for a while so really enjoyed making this one. There is never two of these cakes the same. This time round a couple of differences I made were that I cut out three little heart-shaped windows in the door, and it looks cute. While in Oz I was given as a birthday present some butterfly cutters, so as you can see I have placed a few little butterflies on this cake. The stalk of the cake was marble cake made in the colours of yellow, green, pink and purple. It looked just right for a fairy cake.

Fairy, Butterfly & Flowers - $130

The colours on this cake were just beautiful. The cake itself was iced in a very pale blue and then it was covered on the two top surfaces with flowers in yellow, pink, blue and purple. I made the flowers all different sizes and styles and it all came together great. Also added are leaves in three different shades of green. Then there are butterflies in the same colours as the flowers. They are all on wires and are placed intermittently about the cake. It is all finished off with four fairies - also on wires. The butterflies and fairies have liberal amounts of edible glitter on them. There is a space left on the icing in the front for a name to be iced in. All in all, a perfect little girls cake.

Amy's Fairies - $110

I have been playing around with creating a Fairy Cake that isn't quite so over-the-top as the toadstool one. This is a very simple cake with two fairies on it and the name of the birthday child. The fairies can be in any colour you like and I will put a corresponding colour boa around the outside of it. The icing is dusted with a holographic edible glitter which makes the whole cake sparkle.

Fairy House - $130

This is the first sculptured cake I had ever made or decorated. Since this one I have made numerous others in the same style but no two ever exactly alike. I am continually improving on the detail and feel I have finally got it to where I am satisfied with it. The fairies are only about 7cm long and are easily altered to become mermaids. In either form they have also become a big seller just on their own.
