Fall is here!

This my favorite time of year! I love how nature just changes right before your eyes....and I love the colors of fall...so rich and inviting. This is also a super busy time of year for me....making costumes for my two boys....*clearing throat* and myself.lol This year I got a great opportunity to make a Rapunzel dress for a little girl named Ava! I am super excited about this because it is such a fresh change from making boy costumes.lol I enjoy all the frills and ribbons! This weekend I was busy making cakes for 2 occasions....one a Grandfather who is a hunting enthusiast and my nephew who is crazy about anything Mario! I do love a challenge....and when I do cakes because each one is unique....it is always different and such a learning experience.

I enjoyed making this deer head! All the skills I learned from sculpture class started to came back.lol

Because of the Fall season...I wanted to incorporate the colors on the cake by adding leveas made out of MMFondant.

I covered horns in white chocolate.yummmm.lol But I wouldn't eat it because I had to construct them out of wire and duct tape.lol

Everything else on the cake is edible though.lol  This is an ultimate chocolate cake....with fudge filling...and home made chocolate icing.

This one is for my nephew....and his reaction to the cake made all the work worth it!

I constructed all the characters from rice crispy treats then covered them in MMFondant!

His favorite character is Yoshi....and he was super excited to eat his head!lol

I am also super excited to share the costumes I am working on.....I will share that on my next blog!
