Streamer cake

Sugar paste streamers and letters adorn the top of this birthday cake. Inside, the classic white butter cake was filled with Italian meringue buttercream. Outside, smooth blue buttercream was the perfect canvas for the argyle/dot pattern made of marshmallow fondant.

Modern Daisy Cake


Spring is in the air! This cake was done for a meeting of a book club. A few days before, I decided to make lots of sugar daisies (and then ended up using only three). My style is a little more contemporary, so when I started putting all those flowers on it, it just didn't feel right. I decorated the sides with fondant shapes and edible pearls. Individually hand-rolled fondant balls created the bottom border. Inside, was white butter cake and a lemon buttercream filling, made from with my homemade lemon curd.
