This page is a compilation of cake shares by Wedding cakes for You visitors. Starting with a gorgeous Mardi Gras Cake. This cake was made for a sweet 16 party. The theme was Mardi Gras. The young lady is very feminine and loved pink so we decided to feature pink as an accent color. The cake was pink velvet with vanilla butter cream.

My Grandaughter's Monkey Birthday Cake.
The party was a monkey birthday theme. I wanted to make something very sweet, so I created a sweet little girl monkey sitting on the cake eating a banana. I sculpted the monkey out of fondant. It was a vanilla with banana pudding filling. I made a marshmallow fondant, covered the cake and made the decorations with the it.
My granddaughters monkey birthday cake was a huge success.

The process took me 3 days in the preparation for this cake...one day to bake and soak the rum syrup throughout the cut layers. Another day to cure.
And then I made my delicious home made vanilla custard, divided it in half and made some chocolate as well. Then I used a chocolate drizzily fudge that I make that sets over each layer of rum soaked layers and filled it with my custards and my own buttery whip cream frosting.
I decorated the 4 layer 9" morsel somehow they always taste better that way. The cake was left to chill for the remainder of the day and then presented for a wedding cake tasting that evening. They were so impressed with the flavor I get the pleasure of making their cake in September.
Just wanted to share not one of my prettiest creations, but one of my tastiest. I don't expect to try and win this awesome contest with all the other excellent works of art.

I made this butterfly cake for a customer. She brought me a single napkin and asked me to make her a baby shower cake. So this was what I made.
As you can imagine, the napkin was pink with stripes and pretty little butterflies. This was my very first fondant one, and I think it turned out just perfect! All of the decorations were in buttercream. The customer had her own topper. :)

This is the cake that started it all for me. My 4 year old was begging for a Princess and the Frog birthday cake. I wanted to have something really special and not just a grocery store one with the plastic figures pushed in. So I went online and found everything I needed. Then watched a little YouTube, read some Colette Peter's books, labored in the kitchen for almost 7 hours...but in the end, she was beyond thrilled with Mommy's Princess And The Frog creation.
FABULOUS!

I was inspired to make a wedding cake out of the need to post another picture of my work on my website and such. I got creative and wanted to do a traditional small 3 tier stacked cake, so here it is.

A young lady that I met happens to like the designer Christian Louboutin and asked if I could help make her birthday special. She wanted a pair of his famous shoes, and this was her way of having them ;-)
Thank you Edith for your spiked heel cake. Very cool! Can you give us some details on how you made these fabulous shoes?

Superman cake! I am a nurse and a young man that has Down's syndrome was at the nurse's station talking about his upcoming birthday. I asked him what kind of cake would he want and he replied, Superman. His enthusiasm prompted this cake. The look of surprise and all the hugs and thank yous from this special guy was priceless! The fondant back drop was my first, so I was delighted in it turned out.
Thank you Edith for yet another great entry into the cake competition. What a nice thing you did making the superman cake for this little boy.

This picnic cake was made for my mom and her friends. They love to have picnics, talk and eat really good food. So she asked me to make a cake that represented her friends and of course her.
Here is what I came up with. A cake with her and her two friends enjoying a picnic. It is a chocolate cake with icing on the top covered with rolled fondant, fondant flowers and fondant figures.
I like this cake because it can be used in every occasion.
My mom and her friends loved the cake so much they did not want to cut it. I felt all my hard work has paid off with my picnic cake.
I hope you like it:)

I made this cat birthday cake for Mohd's birthday which was on the 6th of June. He just loves cats. So I surprised him with this cake cause all his three cats love being in the living room :). The decor from carpet to couch was created by me using gum paste and food colors. If you look closely I even made the cat's poop near the plant lol. The flavor was German chocolate covered in fondant. I really enjoyed making the art work for this cake. Hope you guys will like it too :)
Thanks Meena Your cat birthday cake is great! Very unique idea.

I covered the cake with buttercream and then rolled fondant. The fondant figures and fondant animals are made with lots of love:)

This pumpkin graveyard cake has a delicious double chocolate as it's base layer, topped with Hershey's chocolate icing and Oreo cookie crumbs.
The Pumpkin is made of a delicious yellow cake recipe topped with orange and green fondant, with dark chocolate for it's face.
Also on this wonderful cake are a variety of Halloween decorations all made from white and dark chocolate which include ghosts, rat, eyeball, skull, tombstone, and a bone arm coming out of the grave. Wrapped around the cake is candy corn and a few mellow creme pumpkins.
After making this Pumpkin Graveyard Cake, I definitely learned how important greasing the pan prior to baking is. Lost a whole cake! :(

This "I Love Sweets" cake was made for a young girl whose mother said she couldn't make up her mind what kind she wanted. She went back and forth between an ice cream one to chocolate cupcakes to strawberry shortcake. So I thought it was a good idea to combine all of them into one.
The ice cream cone is made of rice Kripsie treats and the slice of cake on top is strawberry with fresh strawberries inside. The bottom is a triple chocolate fudge with chocolate ganache, covered with fondant.
I decorated the bottom tier with fondant cupcakes flavored with amaretto. I had fun making it and the young girl and mother loved it.
Thank you Ann for a great entry! The idea is very unique. Love it. Hope it gets lots of comments and ratings.

Jabba The Hut
I used 4 boxes red velvet cake and part of a big top cupcake and two sheets, to start. I shaped and cut then with homemade frosting crumb coated then let dry a bit. Then started the mass creature and was done 3 hours after decorating. I had used sprinkles for his eyes. My Son loved his Birthday surprise!!!
Thank you Rachel for your Star Wars Cake Jabba The Cake. I love that you showed us how you sculpted him. He is quite ugly isn't he? Tell all of your friends and family to comment and rate your cake entry. Good Luck
