I normally don't so much fancy stuff when I bake. I've made cheese cake cupcakes which were amazing... I have done Ice Cream Cone Cupcakes http://redroseelcamino.deviantart.com/g ... 9#/d3c70z7

Last week my boyfriend had a small get together of friends. Since we all love My Little Pony and they wanted me to make them something I decided on a pony cake.

I made everything from scratch including the fondant, which I had never worked with before so it came out weird....it wasn't stiff enough I guess. But pretty good for a first try I think!

The colors came out so vibrant (and on-hue!), and the shaping is excellent. It may have felt weird to you, but it looks fantastic!

Here is the cake I got for my boyfriend this year. He doesnt really like cakes, but I told him he was going to get on whether he liked it or not, so he came up with some demands. The cake had to have a dragon (preferably the skyrim dragon) coming out of a portal holding a portal gun, and bacon. Sadly I forgot about the portal gun when I ordered it. The ladies taking my order thought I was crazy. I also gave them multiple pics of the skyrim dragon and this was the result, I think I finally found their limits :D and I think they may refuse to make anymore cakes for me because of this. We still loved the cake though, its very unique!

I now have the image of Alduin popping out of a cake and singing "Happy Birthday" a la Marilyn Monroe.

I'm not sure whether to laugh or cry.

But the cake is awesome. :wiz

Oh, great. Now I can't get rid of that image! Better avoid Skyrim this evening....or maybe not. ^^

Awesome cake, though! :cool:

Man, I wish I'd crashed your wedding. :P

How'd you do that grass border on the birthday cake?

Hehe our table "numbers" were actually video game characters. :3

And the border was actually just a regular ol' stamp with food colouring as the 'ink'. I would recommend using a gel food coloring, I used a liquid, and it was kind of difficult. On the other side, you can tell I was having some problems. Lol.
