One for the Books

I have done several cakes based on books that the birthday boy/girl have liked.

One of those cakes was based off the Warriors series on cat clans.  It was for my niece.  I can't remember the flavor of this particular cake, but it was covered in marshmallow fondant and colored with food gel to recreate the book cover.  My niece loved it, so that's what matters.



Another one that I did was for my son who was all into the Percy Jackson book series at the time.

This is a round blue velvet cake decorated with crusting buttercream to represent the three head Gods, Zeus, Hades, and Poseidon.




Hope you liked them.  Come back for more later.

This force is strong with this one

For a sister/brother birthday party, the mother wanted cakes that were Star Wars themed.

She got her inspiration on pinterest.

I made a girly Darth Vader cake that was pink buttercream with a black and white Vader.  I printed out a Vader and used it to make an outline on my cake.  I then filled it in and smoothed it out with the Viva smoothing method.  The inside was a homemade sprinkle cake.



I made a Boba Fett cake using blue buttercream.  I then used an image from online and my pattern.  I filled in my pattern with green, red, and black icing.  The inside was a homemade buttermilk sprinkle cake.
