Cultural treasure chest

My husband's school is participating in an exchange program with several other European schools, so from Oct. 15-18 they had representatives visiting to plan their project. The title of their project is "A cultural treasure chest", so I nade them this cake with flags of each country on golden coins.

Two layer chocolate cake with chocolate filling, for 36 people; €45

Wedding cake & cupcakes

 For my friend Nancy's wedding, I made her  a small cake and 120 cupcakes (half vanilla, half chocolate, some with vanilla frosting and some with chocolate). The cake was also a mix; top layer vanilla and bottom chocolate.

Cake for 12 people: €40
Cupcakes: €1.50 each

I also made the cupcake stands. The supports were empty cans covered with gathered fabric (from Nancy's dress!). Plates were covered in ivory paper, and edged with brown satin ribbon.
