Angorie and David's Wedding Cake

This was our First Topsy-Turvy Cake. Thanks Angorie for the fun challenge. I've wanted to do one for a while, so thanks!!

Flowers are made out of gumpaste

They had their reception at the Provo Library, it looked beautiful inside. Not to mention how beautiful Angorie was in her wedding dress. Congrat to David and Angorie!!

As a surprise Angorie ordered a Groom's cake for David. He loves anything outdoors, but she said most he loves hunting! I think it is fun when the bride wants to include his interests too!

My second oldest brother, Jeff, just graduated from Dental School!!! Way to go!! He asked if I would make a cake for their graduation party. I was excited to do it but very nervous at the same time. I knew I wouldn't have a lot of time while out there to do the cake, so I was able to make all these pieces before going out and just made the cake part there. The next challenge was getting them there in one piece. Well, thanks to my parents they arrives safe and sound.

Those of you that are familiar with the dental world might appreciate all the little things more than the average joe. Scott kept making fun of me because I just kept making one more thing...then one more. He came into the kitchen one time and said "you are having way too much fun with this cake." And I was. The top picture is what I work with daily, a mirror, explorer, gauze, suction and the drill. The next picture is a lovely detail I quite enjoyed, the riostat, makes the drill go!

I decided to make the tooth the patient. He has a big cavity...be sure to brush and floss after eating...cake :)

Ok, I have to take a second to brag about myself... I normally don't...but would you LOOK AT THAT FACE!!! He is by far the best looking face I have ever made! He does look like he is a wearing cut off scrub shirt, but his face is gorgeous!!!

Congrats to Dr. Jeffery Poulson!!!

The picture above was a personal touch, that I was glad Jeff caught. I went out the end of March to assist Jeff with his boards test (he has to pass to get his dental license. Kind of a big deal with lots of pressure). So for his boards he did 2 fillings, one on tooth #14 an MO and one on #9 MLF. So this might not make any sense to you, but it means something to the two of us :)

This touch I thought was quite fitting of Jeff's personality. He loves to build thing and work with tools, so I decided instead of a normal little dental drill, it would be more fun to have a big drill!!! Don't get any ideas though Jeff, I don't recommend using this in your practice!! :)

All in all it was probably the most fun cake I have made, my life's work has led up to this one.

Congrats again to Jeff and his family for making it through dental school together!!
