More Cake Fun!

A friend of ours wanted a cake for his wife's birthday. They have a cabin on the Little Red River and this the cake version! I had to bake and decorate the cake all on the same day.... not ideal circumstances- especially when the cake is weighted down with heavy fondant. I learned A LOT about cake carving. Can't wait to do another "carving"! Happy day Mrs Ann! We love you!






This cake was for a young lady on her 15th birthday. A friend of mine connected me with her sis-in-law who wanted a cake for her daughter's birthday party. I have to say this was one of the MOST fun cakes I have done! And, I used a new buttercream icing recipe under the fondant..... OH MY GOODNESS! Even a sugar Nazi like me had to eat up a BIG OLE glob of that icing! I mean, anything for quality control, right? I didn't want to send off a yucky tasting cake! Ha!

Emily, I am just floored! These are astonishing cake creations. I'll bet the people who receive them almost can't make themselves cut into them, because of wrecking a masterpiece.
