How to Train your Dragon - The Hidden World

My second mirror glaze cake (this is not the typical mirror cake though) and my first time using isomalt in molds like this. I LOVE isomalt! It was so easy and fun to use! I got more bubbles than I wanted the first few times I used the crystal molds (I found them on amazon), but I figured out that tapping the mold hard on the counter multiple time, right after I poured it, got most of the bubbles out. I sculpted the cake, iced it with buttercream, froze the cake for a few hours and then poured the glaze. It was an experiment since I hadn't been able to find a video or instructions on pouring mirror glaze on a non-smooth surface. It came out better than I expected! LOL!
























Star Trek Mirror Cake - This was my first mirror cake. I loved the experience and process! It's so much fun and with subsequent cakes, I let my kids pour the glaze and mix the colors. They really enjoyed it!



Thanos Infinity Gauntlet Cake

This was a really fun cake to make! The infinity stones were made out of molded hard candy. Gauntlet was carved rice krispy treats covered in fondant. The "stone" it's sitting on is cake.

Harry Potter Cake


Harry Potter Themed Cake for my son. Chocolate frogs, golden snitch - made of fondant, and a chocolate wand! Everything was edible! 






Rustic Aspen Wedding Cake

I created this cake for a couple's wedding. She wanted a fall themed, wood stump looking cake. I covered the cake with buttercream icing and then used a crisco based icing for just the aspen white.

Everything but the cake topper and the sticks for the berries was edible. Including the moss! :-)


















I was most proud of my edible moss! I couldn't' find any good examples or instructions online, so I made my own! I used chocolate cake for the "dirt" and the green moss is dyed coconut flour!! It turned out sooo well for my first try!
I was super excited about it! :-)

Lt. Col. Cupcakes
Made these for a Lt. Col. Promotion party. 
The leafs I made out of white chocolate and sprayed with edible silver food coloring. I made a custom silicone mold of an oak leaf pin and poured the white chocolate into it.  I made about 100 of them! It was quite a bit of work! :-)
