To start with, I made a simple 2-layer 12&#215;18 white cake with a strawberry flavored buttercream filling.  Then I cut out the middle of the top tier about 2/3 the [...]]]></description>

I bounced around quite a few ideas before I came up with the final design.  I was going to have two or three fairies having a tea party using vegetation as [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[For my New Year&#8217;s Eve party, I came up with an idea for a cake depicting snowmen celebrating the new year.  It&#8217;s a simple cake with the most complex part being a sled that a kid snowman (a snowkid?) was riding.
I put a tree in the background and the tree, along with the sled, was [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This cake was for a 13-year-old&#8217;s birthday party.  He is on his school&#8217;s cross country team and we decided it would be neat to create a cake to mimic the team&#8217;s logo.  To give you an idea, here is what the logo looks like:

The cake design was to be a sneaker with wings sitting atop [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I made this ambulance cake for a 7-year-old&#8217;s birthday party.  His parents volunteer with the local ambulance service.  This cake is based on an actual ambulance in the fleet.  I took some artistic license with the scale and some of the details.
To start, I made a base out of foam board.  A base made out [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This cake was for a baby shower.  It&#8217;s basically a 3-layer rectangular cake with a basket weave pattern around the sides&#8230; with a hood and some wheels.
A week earlier, I started on the hood.  A basketball worked for the form.  I wrapped it in plastic wrap, then some felt padding, then some more plasting wrap, [...]]]></description>

I started with a 12&#215;18 sheet cake and cut it in half length-wise.  Then I stacked the two pieces.  The actual bottle, laid down, is as tall [...]]]></description>

I had a general idea in mind, but the big problem was how to make the towers.  I&#8217;ve seen the Wilton castle kit and it would have made a nice cake.  But it just felt like cheating to use [...]]]></description>
