A little bit of Fondant Cakes

I have started making cakes recently and have learned a lot. I finally made my first wedding cake. I am going to post my cakes from my last one to my first and you can see the progress.

This cake was for my cousins music themed wedding. It turned out exactly like she wanted and was so fun to make.




This cake was for my sisters birthday. I have always wanted to do the birthday banner on top of a cake so I did and I loved how it turned out. 


This cake was for my other sisters birthday. I loved the bright colors she chose and the ruffles. So fun. (as you can see I have been trying out all the different techniques)



This was my son's 2nd birthday cake, transportation themed. He loved it and really loved that his dog was riding in the train. This was by far the most fun I have had making a cake.



This cake is kinda silly, and it was my second cake ever, so don't mind the plump characters (I didn't really know how to work with fondant and gum paste yet). My nephew wanted a Dr. Who cake for his birthday and I had no idea what that was. After some research this is what I came up with. He loved it however, and thats all that mattered.


This was my first cake ever. Looking back its not too bad. I remember not knowing what to do at all and it still turned out okay.


Those are the cakes I have made so far. I am going to venture out do more cakes here and there because I really enjoy making them. If you want to learn for yourself I watched 20+ youtube videos and then gained experience along the way. I still watch them to learn new techniques, but really that is all I did. You can do it!!!
