Back again!

So its been a while.

This time because I have had another little bundle of joy. But I'm back caking it, and still love it.

Many new cakes to post so I best get on then hadn't I! I also have a Facebook page setup for Cozzmic Cakes. Please come and take a peek.

Little pic of the new bundle.

As you can see the big brother is doing well and daddy is doing brilliantly with both of them! If I didn't have this support I would not be baking so a bog thanks to both our families as well! (especially my mum for the help with baking).

Bearded Dragon Cake

You know when your a kid and you ask for a god or a hamster or a pony for your birthday? This kid wanted a bearded dragon... ah ha... So it all made from fondant and pipped with royal icing...

Took a while but was worth it.

Guinness Themed Retirement Cake

Good things come to those who wait! clearly waiting to retire from work is one of those things!

All completely edible. even the toucan, he was fun to make and I had to stop the husband from trying to steal him. 

Sea Themed Wedding Cake

Ok, so this cake was done for my best friend, and her now wonderful husband. They were married on a really really old boat and so had a nautical themed wedding. Below is a 4 tiered cake been attached by a squid on the top tier!

The cake had a different color for each tier and then was airbrushed to give a different shade for the waves. The curves that are the waves are the same on all the tiers but randomly applied.

It was a wonderful day apart from me falling over in my bridesmaid dress, I'm so awesome! Below the happy couple!

Megadeth Cake

This was done for a lady I work with, her daughter was 18 and she loves Megadeth, so when I asked 'what do you want my to put on the cake that shows this?' 

She promptly replied with 'Oh that bleeding, dead skull thing... You know what I mean!'

At the time I did not, but I just nodded and said 'Oh yeah, of course I know what you mean, I'll make it look as realistic as I can...???'

So I came home and asked the wonderful Internets all my questions, and that's when Vic Rattlehead popped up as the bleeding, dead skull thing... And here he is on that very cake I made!

Super Hero Cupcakes for a Charity Day!

Where I work have Charity Events every now and then, you know, to do there bit and show that they are willing to help the world! This event was done with a Super Hero Theme!!! So I decided to pitch my colleagues in a battle of wits to see who knew what Super Hero's I had chosen to decorate the cupcakes in. Needless to say they got the obvious ones but you would be surprised by which one stumped them...

Of all these Hero's, it was Wonder Woman that confused most, you must take into consideration that this was about 4 years ago so a lot of the major movies they now know where not out then...

The cakes are basically vanilla cupcakes with a swirls of butter icing, and a circle of fondant icing put on top, then the Hero logos are pipped royal icing left to dry and put on top, was hard and time consuming but from what I understand these cakes where gone within the hour so it was totally worth it!

Scientific Doctor Theme!?!?

So I thought it was about time I posted some cakes I have done, to a certain Scientific Doctor theme. Just to make sure that I cover my backside here these cakes where done as gifts which is so often what my skill ends up being used for anyway! And not for the benefit of monetary gain when the rights are so clearly owned by a big, powerful and all knowing company!?!?


Because I have done a few I will just show them all in this post rather than a post each!

 

 A Time Travelling Police Phone Box!

 

One Killer Dust Bin and it life before fondant icing :)

 

One Robotic Doggy (with bamboo skewer for head support!)

 The Police Box was one, 10 inch cake cut into 4, so you ended up with 5 by 5 inch pieces of cake that would stack to create the height. You then icing accordingly after leaving in the fridge for 2 or more hours to have the butter icing harden slightly. you add thick straws or plastic supports to get it to stay upright.


Similar sort with the killer dust bin except cutting it to shape before icing.


The robotic doggy needed the bamboo skewer for support as cake is not exactly light! Nor a kind mistress where defying gravity is concerned!
