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!

90th birthday cake

My grandma turned 90 years old and we did a party for her. My cousin had a stand that she thought would look pretty, so I decided to do a square tiered cake to put on the stand. The more I thought about it, I decided to try using fondant. I did a 6 inch, 8 inch, 10 inch, and 12 inch cake. Each cake had 2 layers with buttercream frosting in between. I covered each layer with fondant and then put ribbon around the base. My cousin put the flowers on top of each layer after we got it to the church for the party. The top, next to the bottom, and bottom cakes were all regular pound cake. The second cake down was a chocolate pound cake (my favorite).
