Baby shower for Ms Stephanie Medrano

One of my son's transitional kindergarten teacher, Ms Stephanie will be having a baby boy on Dec 15. Since it is around Christmas holidays, I chose this centerpiece theme for her.

A platter filled with puppy chow (chex mix covered in peppermint and peanut butter chocolate), mini mallows and hidden chocolate gold coins for good luck). The Christmas scene is all fondant and ginger bread cookie tree.





Happy birthday Kyoah 2012

I made this 2D cake for a little girl named Kyoah who is into gymnastics, I met her lovely grandma at my son's school gathering for Thanksgiving. The topper is fondant sitting on a quarter size chocolate sponge cake with chocolate shavings on sides and whipped cream.

Angry birds Playable Cake structure


 
I used a styrofoam board, and wrapped with baking foil and spread frosting across. The structures were kit kats and reese peanut butter wafer bars, sat against rectangular blocks of cakes. Based on my experience here, in summer time or indoors, when this huge structure would not fit in my fridge, I suggest to use, brownie blocks and coat it with melted chocolate - it holds up better than cake itself.
 
Each kid at the party will get a try to launch the birds made of fondant into the structures to bring the green piggies down as they were enjoying fried eggs from the birds.
 

M&Ms cakes

M&Ms characters in fondant sitting on a chocolate sheet sponge cake, whipped cream with chocolate shavings.
 


This cake was made for my son's 5th birthday to celebrate with his classmates. I was pleased that I manage to capture Green's character with Michael Jackson's fedora, Yellow's innocence, Red's brassiness and Blue's coolness and lastly, Orange's introvertedness.
