I used to decorate cakes for a few years and now only do it for family occasions and things like that. Here is one I made though for my mom's last birthday to look like her cat (RIP)

It was a lot of fun, but the only way to make any real money is to do wedding cakes and I just couldn't handle the pressure! i still enjoy doing the cartoon cakes, etc. on occasion though. My family hasn't bought a bakery cake in years, and my stepsisters both got "free" wedding cakes!

That takes a lot of talent to do. It looks great, especially the ball of yarn. Very cute. I'm sure your family appreciates your baking abilities.

That's why I took pictures of all of them! They had no trouble just digging right in


Here's a couple more of my favorites. I just love Marvin the Martian so had to do one of him. The birdhouse was my first attempt at a 3-D cake and it definitely was tricky getting the pieces cut right and get them to stay in place!

Those are great! Let's see more cakes!

I have one that would go with your birdhouse cake; it was for Daughter's 6th Bird-day party (the theme was birds, obviously). I wanted to make a parrot, but she insisted on a nest. Nineteen kids attended this party at our house!



p.s. Who is the Marvin the Martian fan? My husband would love that cake!

Your bird nest cake is so great! What a clever idea! I made the Marvin cake for myself, just for fun, because I've always liked him. I have about 30 cartoon and character cake pans but I don't have any of the other pictures scanned or I would post them.

Looking at them almost makes me want to start doing it again! lol

Have you checked out Cake Central? You can put up a gallery of your cakes, and it's great searching for new ideas.

I wanted to add ribbons and bits of string in the nest, but ran out of time because I tried to cover the cream eggs with imitation white chocolate that I thought was real, you can see it's kind of lumpy.
