Things I've learned on this challenge:
1. It's not easy to position cake decoration sprinkles on an Oreo.
2. More sweets on Easter is not necessary.
3. More sweets on Easter is not a bad thing.
4. Sea creatures don't always stay where you put them.

Happy Smile on Saturday! Hope you all have a fun day, keep on smiling! ;0) I know I found this so hard to do and get the white background to look white and not grey or not get the outside mirror edge in the image!
Sugar cake decorations.
This was challenging as any movement these tiny sprinkles moved. Patience needed! I don't think I ever want to see cake decorating sprinkles ever again :))
HMM!
Macro Mondays: Knolling.
Those white, golden and copper colored pearls are made to decorate cake ... their diameter is between one and three millimeters.
Always helps the medicine go down, that sugar. I love it. Bad sugar...naughty sugar.

I brought this yule log cake from our local bakery, you are welcome to have a slice, if you like. Merry Christmas.
Crazy Tuesday theme Silver
I struggled to find inspiration for this weeks theme and running out of time. Luckily inspiration came during a hospital appointment today although still struggling for time - we got our 2nd jabs this afternoon.
My idea was to find silver and other coloured cake decorations and have them look like they were being painted silver with nail varnish. It didn't quite come out how I wanted but I think it still works.
Happy Crazy Tuesday! 😄
Well I gave it a go and I had to buy some cheap candles too.
This isn't a type of photography I've tried before, so it was a lot of experimenting as well as getting a photo for today's theme. Fun trying though.
This morning, before the birds had woken up, I took my props out into the garden. Set everything up and then turned the outside light off.
This was the best of about two rolls of film!
The Father Christmas is one of our Christmas cake decorations and is about 2cm in height.
Maybe better viewed large but thank you for your favourites. :O)
That's a strange title for me to choose because I hate tea! I've always been a coffee lover. Anyway, these little cake decorations are resting against part of a china tea cup, so it seemed apt. :)
For this week's Macro Mondays group challenge, The Odd One.
I couldn't come up with anything original for this item so hope this image fits ok.

Macro Mondays. Knolling
I used lots of tiny cake decorations to make this knolling creation. I love how small and colorful the bunny, flowers, bees, butterflies, and carrots are. Yes, it's finally here!!
A symbol of Switzerland. This one is made of white chocolate and is sitting on top of a mountain of cream and chestnut purée, on a small cake. I wish I'd thought of taking a photo of the whole cake before I ate it - but I can always buy another one. Chestnut is the symbol of my home commune, Castagnola.

Well, you didn't seriously expect me to do anything but a pink Halloween, did you? :)
The tiny jar is only just over ½" high and it's filled with minute hundreds and thousands (sugar cake decorations), which were individually placed using tweezers to make sure I only got the pink ones. The petals on the lower shelf stuck to the tweezers, so it took quite a while to get them where I wanted them. Oh yes, this one was fiddly!
For this week's Macro Mondays group challenge, Halloween.
Crazy Tuesday: Ball or Sphere
A day at the mall goes awry when three women get stuck in the Ball Pit. Is it a party? A fight? Did somebody lose a contact? Even I don't know.

-Balls: cake decorations (candy pearls)
-Figures: mix of 1:87 railway figures from Preiser, Bachmann, Noch, Vollmer, Woodland Scenics
-Planter: Segolike Company
-Flooring: shelf liner and paper
-Rear wall: reflective silver paper

Today, May 3rd, is our first wedding anniversary!!!(Already!?!?)
When we were deciding on cake design for the wedding Erin asked me if I wanted LEGO topper/s. (I love her so much!!!) I replied as any AFOL would, with a resounding "YES!!! I love you!" This is the fourth in the series of 5 vignettes I made for the occasion.
Each vignette symbolizes a step or period in the relationship. This is rather obviously the last, being the wedding. These are actually our wedding colors; dark blue, violet and silver (/white). I actually wore a silver vest, and that was the closest torso to Erin's dress.
I've been uploading the other four, but there is still several shots to go, of them at the reception, etc. so stay tuned!!!
Thanks for viewing along so far!
I recently won best vignette at BrickFest for these. Erin was very happy!!!
I will also be loading shots of them on the cakes in the days to come.
Finally photos of my competition cake for the show:-)
I won for best Novelty cake voted by the audience and it got highly commended by the judges:-) It was so fun to do and I am happy. All made out of cake dummies even the cupcake (what a mess) The cherry was actually pinkish. The "whipped cream" was thick royal icing and both cherry & the green berries have been glazed to get them shiny.

The Fault in Our Stars
Novel by John Green (2012)
This was the first thing that came to mind when I read the theme for this Monday and I stuck with it. The novel was a birthday gift from a dear friend. My husband and two boys found it funny that a book made me cry. I used small cupcake sprinkles for this image. HMM
