Cake Wrecks

okay I am new to having a blog but I am not new to blogging. I have visited some very interesting book club blogs. One of my favorite blogs is cake wrecks. So in a nod to the blog I have posted my very own cake wrecks...




This is Nate's first birthday cake. He was really into lions when he was a baby. In fact at nine months he would roar if you mentioned the word lion which I thought was really cute. The cake I liked at the time, it was the first cake I had ever made and I was so proud now I just notice the little lion paws--horrible. This is Nate's 3rd birthday cake. I kept having this recurring flat tire problem.
Here we have Nate's 4th cake. He wanted a pyramid with a mummy cake. Everyone thought it was a volcano. One of my friends husbands who works in the museum at the college was very encouraging he told me that the ancient someones of such and such time period built their pyramids this way. I love him.Okay now we have the infamous Dora cake. Now I have to say when I was done with this cake I was really happy I thought it looked good. I had some minor issues with the coloring and her face was so smooth until I dropped some chocolate on it but other than that I was really excited about this cake. Until I loaded the pictures in my computer!!! My Dora just does not take a good picture.
A cake I did for a friends daughter
My first experiment with marshmallow fondant yum yum!

2nd experiment with marshmallow fondant. This cake was for my friends other daughter

I made this cake for my mom's 50th birthday.
So that's all the wrecks for now. There is one other wreck I have not posted, it is sooo horrible.
Ella's first cake, it was a butterfly. Everyone thought it was a giant X. That is all I have to say about it.
