Ice Cream Flavors
Two posts about ice cream! This time is not the shape of the cake, but the flavor... mmm delicious. I made it for my mom's bday (I feel like lately I only work for my family - not complaining though).
This cake is a yellow cake with orange flavor, filled with pineapple and apricot jam, which I did, and I was proud of :) The buttercream used to frost the cake had pineapple flavor and the fondant... pineapple with orange... as I said, just like an ice cream.
My family was in love with my cake, and so was I, because I feel that with each new cake I've been improving in so many levels, and that makes me happy and proud of myself. And believe me, I'm quite a perfectionist but I see progress, so I'm happy and that won't mean I will stop trying to be better each day.
And now the reason why you visit my blog:
Thanks pretty people for reading my posts, hope to come back soon with a new project.
XOXO

A bowl of ice cream or a cupcake?
This time I'll let you decide, is my cake an ice cream bowl or a cupcake?
Let me tell you, I was aiming for a cupcake, but I feel like the bottom of my cake is too rounded and looks more like a bowl... but still I like my cake and the colors are pretty sweet!
On the base of the cake I put some cookies and wrote "melly" on them, because the name of the girl is Starmelly... how clever? hehehe.
The cake is a yellow cake with almond extract, the buttercream has coconut and lemon flavor, delicious!
So, what do you think?
Thanks for reading! XOXO

What I've been doing - A quick summary
Hi everyone,
Thanks for being so nice and patient!
I'm going to summarize what I've been doing the last months, and after this, I hope to continue posting as frequently as I did before =)
At the end of September I did a Strawberry Shortcake, had so much fun with modeling. The cake was an All American Chocolate Cake filled with "dulce de leche":
Later last year I played with polymer clay and also tried to replicate my work on fondant:
And here is what I've been doing this year, enjoy! =)
Some lovely bears:
A sofa with wood floors:
Cute cows sitting on a fence:
A hippo relaxing on a summer day:
And the latest, my pirate, which was a gift for my boyfriend (he loved it!):
Well ladies and gentlemen, this is it for now, but I'll be back soon!
XOXO
