Ahhh...peace has come between my laptop and I. I found a lost file. As you can tell, those who frequent by, the blog has been quiet over the past couple of weeks.
Suddenly, today... BAM!
Look at all the pretty cakes! Like this one!
By far, one of my favorites, mostly because it is all mine. No Martha Stewart inspiration, no pics off the internet. We sat over coffee one night and came up with the plan, and here it is in all her glory.

Soft beautiful green fondant, handmade gum paste flowers, all sizes and shapes, cascading down one corner, quilted trim around each layer. And the top? A beautiful sculpture of an embrace.

Here's a nice little fondant-free gem I did this past summer. It's actually finished in my new favorite icing, swiss meringue butter cream. Oh dear lord I am in trouble with this one. I seriously cannot have it around. It's made by melting the sugar down, and thus creates a smooth silky texture, combined with fluffy egg whites and pure unsalted butter, it melts away to nothing in your mouth, craving for another spoonful. No sticky-sugary-my-teeth-hurt icing here, just smooth creamy nothingness.
