Here are some pics of food that I've made or food from places I've eaten at. There are more pics here on flickr and here on theedorks.isfeasting.

This is my first attempt at a layered fondant cake. I made this for my mom’s birthday (as you can see). It was organic vanilla cake with homemade vanilla bean canolli cream with fresh blueberries.

I definitely need to work on my fondant work – I made it a bit too small and the corners started to crack. Also, I didn’t know how to merge the seams together. I definitely tried to hide these problems with those little white buds of royal icing – haha.

I also made gum paste flowers by hand – roses, random yellow flowers, and leaves filled with chocolate, and green veins with royal icing.

Making a cake with fondant is a lot of work! Maybe I’ll stick to mostly cookies and cupcakes, and leave cakes to special occasions.
