Stephanie’s Cakes

What do you do when you have three family members graduating at the same time? Throw a triple graduation party, of course - with a cake that features each graduate’s school colors, hobbies, and the next school they will attend! I got the idea for this cake from a similar design in an old Wilton design book, but I made it out of one large sheet cake rather than three individual cakes - I thought it would look more like a real bank of lockers that way. The cake is iced in buttercream with sculpted fondant accents for the banners, stickers, and the lifeguard’s whistle. The little combination locks came out just right - they might be my favorite part of the cake!

This wedding cake has to be one of my favorites. I was thrilled with the way it came out! Three tiers iced in buttercream, with white fondant cutout flowers, piped swirls and dots, and a piped monogram. The border is also buttercream, and the flowers are real. I had a lot of fun arranging the orchids - I love the way that these single blooms have such bold presence on the tiers.
