So I just finished my first paid cake order. It was for a girl I knew in Highschool, it was her husband's birthday. He is into boating and wakeboarding and stuff like that so this is what I thought would be great for him!
The first shot it part way through, I carved the cake then covered it with the fondant and kinda molded it for the inside of the boat. The second is a shot of the inside, it was kinda plain and simple because I didn't want to try too much and ruin it... haha and then the Third shot is the final product! There are a few things I would do different next time, but seeing as its the first time i've done anything like this and the first time doing a freakin boat! lol I think I did a pretty good job. They loved it, so i guess it all works out! :D

First Paid Project!
I think it was a great learning experience and a nice cake to add to my portfolio. They also asked me if I would do a wedding cake for someone they know! (for sept 18) I might do it, but a wedding cake is a bit different then just a birthday cake haha! Anyways... Thats all for now :D
oh and ps School starts tomorrow!!! yay!

Angela showed me this on her phone yesterday.. but the phone pic didnt do the cake justice.. This is totally awesome! Good Job on first cake order! Now.. on to building a website for your portfolio... lol. Hope school goes good for you!
Great job!! I love it. That is not a simple cake to do. Carving the cake is really hard. You're on a roll!
it was a lot harder than i thought, i probably could have done better on the details on the boat, but it just didn't work out that way. i charged her $20. mostly because i really had no idea how it would turn out.
That boat looks really cute and cool! Can I just say that your blog is making me want some cake!
lucky for me i get to eat the scraps! lol maybe not lucky... :D
"teacher" tells me everytime I talk to her, that your cakes look so delish that it makes her want some... I was thinking, maybe you should make her a cake!
