I never pass up a chance to show off my cake!

I cant post my favourite one because I made it for my niece and I dont have a pic, but I will try to get one, anyway here are some I have made This was my daughters baptism cake Her birthday cake, the butterflies were also on the invite My hockey mad sons 10th birthday And his 9th birthday which was a rock climbing party Lastly my other sons 3rd birthday, he was mad on The Wiggles so I made a big red car

Cool cakes ladies. Em

heres the one i made sophie a couple of weeks ago! if i can do it anyone can! carli

far out those cakes are neat aight! i love them!!

oh Hera where you been hiding that one??? Yeh i love these pictures of these cakes the best thing about it is that it's not jsut from some website, they are actually been done by us mum's here!!! we need more, hehehe,

hera- yep we made the stars out of 100% melted choccy! and yes it was yum!!!

cool how did you get the stars to stay on the sticks?

I do have a bit of creativity in me but I do them because I love seeing the end result. I am a shocking planner so most have been created between midnight and 2am the night before the party lol. But actually except for the Big red car, which was a bit of a mission, they were pretty easy. You just need the right tools and quality food colouring, which you get from cake decorating shops not the supermarket. Not terribly healthy, but hey, its one day a year.

hehe nah Hera.. so anyone wanna explain how they created the cakes, I'm wondering how you got a cake in a car shape

luana - we put the stars face down, and then used melted choclate to stick them to the wire. worked like a charm! (and looks cool!!!) carli

Hi, I made a baby chick for my 1 year old's birthday. Here is the photo: [IMG][url=http://imageshack.us] [/url][/IMG] [IMG][url=http://imageshack.us] [/url][/IMG] Hard work, but I think it turned out okay in the end.

WOW COOL how did you do that???

Wow, you are all very creative and talented I was going to post a picture of Meg's cake but am far too embarrassed now

hey there My twins are turning 2 this month, and i am making a winnie the pooh cake and elmo cake, though only doing the heads, i have traced picutres from there books and got my dad to blow them up on his photo copier, and then i am going to cut it out on card board and carefully cut around it and the cake, all hoping to goes well! So i have a question, what kind of colour do you buy, i am going to need red and yellow and a wee bit of orange (for elmos eyes i am going to use gaint mashmellows! and licorice for the outside and lines of both cakes! So its best not to buy the colour from the super market ah? For the girls fist birthday, my mum baked them and i decorated them with loads of lollies and put a P on one cake and an S on the other, sorry i can't upload a photo, this year i will try though, coz i am not an artist, she just made 2 banana cakes. This year she is baking a choco cake for one and the i am going to try a marble cake for the other. So anyway the best icing?

go on sarah, megs cake was gorgeous

Aw shucks, Sarah, thanks Can't remember how to show a pic but I'll try, here goes
