New Year Eve Cake

I am super excited about this one.  Up until tonight I have never tried to cover a shaped cake, only round and square cakes.  I had the idea in mind for a Christmas cake, but with me getting really sick I didn't have time to make it.  So, instead of giving up on my idea, I adapted it to New Years.  I am so happy with how it turned out.  :)

Gumpaste Critters Session 2

2 more hours - 5 more critters.  I look forward to session 3 sometime in the new year... 

Without me... What a GREAT group of ladies.

They convinced me to join them in the photo shoot again, :)

Without me, lol... :)

Christmas Cake Bites

I made Cake Bites for Christmas gifts for loved ones near and far.  I found out that for the most part, my packages arrived in decent shape; however, some arrived pretty beat up.  I now know what I need to do in order to ship for safe delivery... or I hope so at least.  Here are pictures of the cake bites that I made this year:

Here are my latest cakes.  There are aspects of each that I am proud of, lol.

I love how the grass turned out on this one.

My writing is atrocious but they like it, lol. Josh told me that those didn't look like balloons either, hehehe.
