Thanks to everyone for the cupcake love in the last post. You’re all so sweet and encouraging. I haven’t made any new cakes in a while, and a few of these I may have posted before, but it’s been a while and some of you are new here. So I’m posting some of my favorites.
There’s a quilted cake with a gum paste bow.
Some gum paste flowers I made on a two tier cake. I used my camera phone on these so they’re not great pictures.
A cake for my niece’s birthday.
A doll cake that’s a little fancier than the usual frosting one. Everything on her is made of fondant and gumpaste. There were hundreds of those little pink flowers on her.
It’s something I really want to get back to. But it can be time consuming. And my stash of gumpaste flowers sort of had an accident involving small children and playing ball in the house, so I need to make a bunch more of those. I just need this rain to stop so I can begin. And a little inspiration!
Hope you’re having a great week.
Best,
Stephanie
Be still my heart......these cakes are beautiful.

wow. what a talent you have. those are amazing. love the first one and the doll. i had a barbie doll cake like that when i was a kid. i loved it.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, Stephanie! I only did the Barbie cake once, and it had to be whipped cream! Lily's request! I sis use a pandoro pan for the bottom so I got the ruffled effect, nowhere as pretty as yours!
ReplyDeleteoh my goodness, these are all amazing!
ReplyDeleteYour cakes are gorgeous Stephanie. I used to make sugared flowers years ago too and actually made my friend's wedding cake with flowers on it. I haven't done any in years though.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Stephanie..
ReplyDeleteThe flowers are divine... how clever you are!!! xxx Julie
Oh my goodness, Stephanie, they are all gorgeous! Too pretty to eat. Really!
ReplyDeletei would feel bad to eat any of these they're so beautiful... love that tufted one... looks a bit Chanel like... love it!
ReplyDeleteThese are amazing, Stephanie!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for coming by the Back Porch. You should have seen me set that fall table, yesterday. I just threw it together. I have a vintage ecru crocheted cloth...around here someplace, that would work great with that table also. The elegant mixed with rustic is a favorite of mine.
Happy Weekend!
Wow Stephanie, you seriously need to get back into this, what a talented lady you are, the quilted cake is amazing.

My word, if you do have business, you should start one. I have never seen cakes like this any of our bakeries. You do a fabulous job. I have done so many different ones,I cannot remember them all.
ReplyDeleteOk, Stephanie, I am sitting here with my mouth hanging open. These cakes are over-the-top-fabulous!!! You are always leaving such sweet comments about my crafting, well let me tell you girl, I don't come close to holding a candle to you on cake decorating!!! I took a class years ago when Carrie was little and made ONE cute birthday cake for her, all done using a star tip. That was it. I just didn't have the knack for it, and the clean up was horrendous.
ReplyDeleteWow. I'm in awe. You must do this more often and post more photos!!! VERY well done!!! ♥
The cakes are amazing. Gorgeous! You are so creative. Amazing!
ReplyDelete???? Stephanie!!!
ReplyDeleteDid you make these gorgeous cakes?? You never cease to amaze me..you are one talented lady. Man...I can't even begin to comprehend the amount of patience that would go into a single flower let alon a whole cake.
Well done you!!
