Father's Day

I am officially in love with Wilton after creating this cake. I love everything about it and I'm pretty sure it's the best so far. The colors are fabulous and the frosting tip used for the bag was a great way to give the cake texture. I almost skipped out on that and I'm so glad I didn't.

pepperoni and buttercream

For the pizza cake I continued with the use of candy clay to create the pepperonis and the cheese. I think I would like to try this cake again with frosting as cheese, just for comparison. The cake is chocolate, the first chocolate cake I have made from scratch. It came out wonderful and was very moist. It tasted delicious with the buttercream frosting.

Fun With Cupcakes

While making my next cake I had some extra batter and decided to make some cupcakes that I could use to try some frosting techniques with. I am still new to using buttercream frosting so I wanted to try some things I had seen in Wilton books and on websites. The thing I wanted to try most was creating flowers. They came out relatively well for my first attempt.
