My latest project
I have to say that I'm not normally the type of person whom would normally adventure to go out of my way and make glamorous birthday cakes...that's what Katie is for. However I do love to bake. A friend of mine wanted a barbie doll cake for her 6 year olds birthday party this week. And she asked if I would do it since I have her foolishly tricked that I'm a really great bakress..he, he, he! Alright then, I took upon the challenge and started searching on the internet for pictures and ideas. I got several..I love the internet. So I was just going to do something simple with buttercream icing, until I saw photos of cakes with fondant frosting. I had to try! I was warned not to for the difficulty of fondant, but with a couple of mistakes I think the cake turned out pretty cute. I found a recipe for the stuff and made it 2 days before I decorated the cake. Letting the fondant sit and then rolling it in flour made it easier to work with and was not too bad. Here is my result...

Good job on the cake! I don't have a creative bone in my body, but I can totally appreciate someone who does. How did it taste?
Hey Heather! Beautiful job on the cake, and especially for your first time with fondant. Nice!
WOW That looks GREAT!!! you did a good job, now you'll have to teach me. :p How did it taste?
That's exactly what Regan wants. You want another job? Maybe you can give me some pointers while you're in town.
I love how the cake turned out. Great job!
