Little Ladybug
This cake was for a one year old little girl.  It's an 8" round Ladybug and a cupcake for her to smash.  I covered the cake board in green fondant so the ladybug could be in the grass.

 used a red ribbon around the edge of the board.

Fancy Nancy Birthday Cake
This cake was for my daughters 6th birthday.  I really like having a two tiered cake for a birthday party so the kids can choose between two different flavors.  Rebecca asked for a chocolate cake, but I knew not everyone would like chocolate so I used a white cake on the top tier and actually almost half chose the white.  Though personally, I'll choose chocolate every time!

I made Nancy's head with royal icing.  The swirls on the top tier are also royal icing on top of the pink marshmallow fondant.   My friend lent me a fondant flower maker for the flowers and now i need to go out and get one because that thing is Awesome!!  You just press the flower cut out in between the flower press thing and it adds the texture of a flower.
And here is my younger daughter Caitlin,  oooh and aaahing over the cake.  She's such a little encourager, making mommy feel good about her cake.
