Sew Cute: Part 2

Here is the other cake that I was blessed to work on. It came out so cute! I also saw pictures of the birthday boy after he had it, it was of course, even more adorable smeared all over those precious little hands. I have to say, 1st birthday cakes are my favorite. I genuinely love making the smash cakes and seeing pictures of them after the destruction

This cake was so much fun to make. My daughters loved watching it come to life. They had to check on the models every day to make sure they were drying well for "the baby".  My daughters are very interested in my work and enjoy helping when and where they can (IE decorating an extra cake with leftover icing so I don't just have to chuck it all).  They also LOVE when I do models. They're convinced that they're either real animals or toys to play with.

 The Lion is 100% edible. Every adorable inch of him.

The Zebra was supposed to be completely edible, however, it turned out his large (but adorable) head needed some extra support. 

They Turned Out PERFECT. 

 I love how it looks like the Zebra is just chowing down on the grass. 

They are seriously, so cute!

The cake itself is double layered with buttercream grass and fencing. 

I'll have another exciting cake this weekend, and February is looking bright as well!

Sew Cute!

This last week I was blessed with the opportunity to work on my modelling! (With fondant, that is!) I had two different cakes that I made adorable models for!  Since I tend to run off at the mouth (hands? Since I'm typing? I'm not sure.. anyways..) I'm only posting one right now. I will hopefully post the other one tomorrow or so. We have family coming in so that's a huge maybe.

This cake is a two layered cake with buttercream icing and fondant accents, and fondant models. The penguin is so stinking adorable, and completely edible. The 1 is mostly edible, however there is a popsicle stick inserted in the bottom of the middle to keep it standing on the cake.

Enough talk, here are the pics!

This top layer is the smash cake! The giant snowflake on the bottom layer is there as a guide for lifting the top layer and to keep the cake board from sticking to the icing. 

This penguin is so adorable. My daughters both wanted it to keep. I say that's a sign of a job well done. 

And here is the finished product! Snowflakes with flurry accents and sixlets and colored sugar to add just a bit of glitz and glam. So happy with how this turned out!

Stick around for the next cake! It's adorable too!
