This was my first ever display cake, a joyful experiment with isomalt. Many people thought it referenced the Market Theater Gum Wall in Seattle, but it was actually inspired by the sculptor, Brian Rochefort. Created for Honey Crumb Cake Studio. Photo by Chrissy Gordon.

I had arguably too much fun sculpting this brown trout out of cake, and I loved seeing people react when I delivered it. Created for Honey Crumb Cake Studio. Photo by Chrissy Gordon.

This is one of my favorite display cakes that I worked on with my former co-worker, Becca Calvert. Becca created a beautifully embossed patchwork canvas for me to paint with a watercolor effect. We each spent many hours making tiny roselings and hydrangeas, which we then styled together. A true team effort! Created for Honey Crumb Cake Studio. Photo by Alexandra Knight.

It took a lot of practice and experimentation, but I love making gumpaste roses now. Created for Honey Crumb Cake Studio. Photo by Chrissy Gordon.
