Old-time Santa Cake
So I finally finished and posted my Santa cake from a class I took almost 2 weeks ago! This Santa Cake is just a little over 2-feet tall from base to the top of his head.
It is the cake I did in a class with Bronwen Weber. I had to bring him home to finish up his bag and repair his beard -- it was shaken off during the ride home.

Sissy's House Project
This is just way too cute!
Sissy, twinsline7's daughter, did this for a school project.
She is in kindergarten! She came up with the plan and did most of it herself! This is a girl that knows what she wants! Love that!!!
Great job, SIssy. I can't wait to see what else you can come up with!
After the last couple of posts of gingerbread houses, I am motivated -- Yeah, we'll see!
Leopard Cookie
So my birthday was yesterday, the 6th, and this was my treat to me. I took some time to make a cookie just because. I love leopards and love animal print, so this was perfect.
He is a handcut cookie and covered in spotted fondant. If I get the chance to make another leopard cookie, I will do it a darker base and make bigger spots.
Ok, back to the Christmas stuff...
