jungle themed 1st birthday cake, originally uploaded by tashistation.

A fun first birthday cake with a jungle theme. The cake topper is made of chocolate fondant mixed with gum paste to help it hold up in the humidity. Luckily Saturday wasn’t a particularly hot and humid day, but lately you never know!

The animal and plant silhouettes on the bottom tier were inspired by Alexander Henry’s zoo fabric. A classic!

Yellow cake layers with chocolate frosting, chocolate fondant (bottom tier) and vanilla fondant (top tier).

This would also make a very cute baby shower cake.

lovebirds cake for natalie — smooooch!, originally uploaded by tashistation.

This vegan chocolate cake with vegan “buttercream” icing stands at a diminutive 5 inches across and three inches tall (not counting the birds). It’s the perfect cake for a small gathering, feeding 6-8 people. Design from Kate Sullivan’s amazing cake book.
