Not going my way

I should have known better than to attempt this cake today, but I did anyway. It didn't turn out how I had planned but I don't think it look horrible by any means either! (Hope the customer agrees.)

Fire truck 1st birthday cake -elongated sheet cake (1/2 chocolate and 1/2 vanilla) with butter cream icing and molded white chocolate helmets. I am told yellow helmets means the fire fighter is a volunteer, you learn something new every day!

Apparently today was a chocolate day, here is something extra that I did - match sticks.

Beep, beep, beep Under construction

As I do consider putting a cake together as "construction" I never thought I would be "building" a castle. Okay, so a lame reference and now, onto the cake...

Castle cake - 1/2 french vanilla & 1/2 milk chocolate covered in butter cream.

Zoom Zoooommmm!

Cars themed race track cake - milk chocolate cake with whipped frosting.

What a great theme for a 21st birthday party - blackjack.

Zebra striped purse cake with fondant cards, fake diamond accents, and real poker chips. Red paper hearts have names such as friend, mother, daughter, sister, and aunt on them to represent the people who bought the cake for the birthday girl.

Have your cake and candy too!

Didn't realize how long it had been since I posted on here! Life has been hectic and I haven't been baking much but business is picking up! Happy 1st day of September to you all. This is my first cake in about a month and a half - had a lot of fun with it and as always added polka dots where ever possible : ~ P
