Coffee Cup


I did this cake for an OrGano Gold Gourmet Coffee Event. Three 8" chocolate cakes with whipped chocolate ganache filling carved to resemble a cup. Then I iced the cake with chocolate ganache and covered with chocolate fondant and topped with whipped chocolate ganache to resemble latte coffee. The handle and logo are made with gumpaste.

Designer Handbag


This is my first attempt at a Coach Purse. I stacked four 7"x11" cakes with buttercream filling then carved then to resemble the handbag. I iced the cake with buttercream then covered with fondant. I used a stencil to paint the "C's" with edible luster dust. The straps and other deatails are made with gumpaste.
