PS3 Controller

Elizabeth wanted a special special to give to her children on the day of their wedding as a symbol of their joining families. The boys love to play their PS3 so she thought a controller would be awesome. The whole cake is Ruby Red Velvet cake with cream cheese frosting covered in marshmallow fondant. In order to make this controller look the best, I shaped the cake into controller first. This usually takes several hours to get right and yes, yes it did :) After shaping it, I covered it in a few layers of buttercream to make sure the indents and grooves were prominent. I covered the whole cake in black marshmallow fondant. I added the the buttons and knobs and there you have it. It really does sound more simple than it was... haha....

Shimmered White Cake with Bling

Elizabeth wanted a very elegant and simple wedding cake. Her fiance, on the other hand, wanted something with smiley faces on it, since that was their little inside joke. When I met with them, I was quite challenged to figure out how to make both of them happy. This cake was the result. I used the smiley faces as little patterns around the 2nd and 4th tier and then used crystal rhinestone beading and 3 beautiful crystal brooches. I also added shimmered borders on each tier to make the cake pop just a bit more.

The couple chose Vanilla Latte Cake, Brownie Lovers Cake, and Emerald City Cake (check out my flavor list at www.SaltCakeCity.com).
