Fondant Cakes

I was able to practice my fondant techniques this past week. I was asked to make a baby shower cake. They used the colors green and chocolate brown and wanted it to look like 2 gifts on top of one another. The customer made 2 bows of ribbon to go on top and on the bottom where the fondant ribbons cross. If they get me a finished picture I will post it too.

I was also asked this week to make a cake for a friend's surprise 30th birthday party. My friend's wife and I looked at some websites and she really liked this style. We used red, black, and white because it was close to Valentine's but also because my friend graduated from the University of Utah and those are their colors. The bottom and top layers were chocolate pound cake and the middle layer was plain pound cake.



Camouflage Cake

My friend's little boy loves army figures and she asked if I would do a camouflage cake. So, I just made a 9 x 13 cake and then drew the black lines and filled in with 2 different greens and a brown. She put some army men on it when they had the party. I thought it turned out really cute!
