Cake Decorating!

Treenahurricane · 05-14-2008, 02:41 PM

Post away your decorated cakes! I love seeing what everyone comes up with for birthdays and other events! Especially if you turn a shaped pan into something other than it's originally intended shape!

Issy's 1st birthday cake for our luau, the "ducky island"
Wilton decorating icing, rubber ducks from Oriental trading co, sugar sprinkles, paper and toothpick palm trees, and crushed vanilla cookies for the sand.

Wilton class cake Feb 07, heart with rainbow
Practiced gel transfer technique, star tipping, dotting, freehand writing

Wilton class cake 2 Feb 07
Practiced Ribbons and bows, wilton rose and skewer rose techniques

Bob the Builder birthday cake June 07
Chocolate canned icing, candies, cookies, and toys

Philip's baptism cake June 07
White canned icing

Puppy birthday cake May 07
Chocolate canned icing, no crumb coating, white decorator icing
Used the birthday block bear wilton cake pan

Gregg's fishing birthday cake Sept 07
Grass tip and smooth top, wilton fishing man, misc plastic trees, marshmallow cream icing (too soft for standard decorating, but makes a good cover and tastes almost like a cream cheese icing)

Truck cake for my brother August 07 (can't find the close ups right now, I have them somewhere!)
Cut two rectangle pan cakes to layer to form the truck, standard wilton decorating icing from recipe

Philip's 1st birthday Alligator cake April 08
Large round pan iced blue (used grass tip with leftover from alligator to cover what I ran out of icing on the blue!), alligator made out of half of the 3D wilton bowling pin pan. Scales with petal tip, eyes and nostrils firm buttercream with black coloring painted on with paintbrush for vivid color. Teeth were "spring" candy corn that used the green shade to blend in. Jelly bean "rocks" detailing for border on bottom of cake (was a hit with the kids!)
