Clowning Around

I had an absolutely amazing time creating this 3-D clown in a class taught by the amazing Bronwen Weber. The structure of the cake is made using a system called "cake bones", created by Francois Long and Bronwen Weber. I loved the class and was thrilled to meet Bronwen (she is one of my husbands favourites from all the Food Network Cake challenges).

This cake is 1oo% edible (aside from the internal support structure). The legs and arms are covered in lots of delicious chocolate modeling paste before they are covered in fondant. The "cake" is the torso of the clown.
Please contact me if you are interested in more information about 3-D cakes and pricing. 3-D cakes can be customized to fit your occasion and theme. I will be recreating this cake at Christmas with a 3-D Santa Clause!!!

Julie and Noah

It was my pleasure recently to make the wedding cake for Julie and Noah. I have known the couple for a number of years, so it was an extra special when they asked if I would make their wedding cake. Julie knew exactly what she wanted her cake to look like. She loved the cascading sugar paste roses from a cake I had done previously, although she wanted them white with a little red accent. The cake was luscious lemon with raspberry buttercream.

Gymnast Cake


I was asked to do a "gymnast" figurine for a 8th birthday cake. It turned out to be a bit of a challenge trying to sculpt a gymnastic pose. I opted to try the easiest pose I could find. In the end I was pretty happy with the result, but more importantly Holly and her mum were happy with the cake!!!

Hockey Puck Cake


I had a request for a hockey themed birthday cake for a Toronto Maple Leafs fan. What says hockey more than a giant hockey puck!. In the centre of the puck is the Maple Leaf's Centre Ice logo (or my version of it anyway). The birthday boy (adult really) loved his cake.
