Crazy Week

This week was in one word CRAZY!!!!! I had tons of stuff to do, my battery in my car died, not to mention the cakes I had to do. The first was for an activity at church that talked about modest clothing it was a modest dress and fifty cupcakes. This day was so insane I had and hour to decorate the cake and fill and frost the fifty cupcakes. Then Thursday I had my final cake decorating class (yes, I finished them all, now maybe I will teach.... we will see). So for my final class I made a baby shower cake for a friend. Then today was my daughters birthday so I made a treasure chest in about 1/2 an hour. This was not the best looking but oh it tasted soo good (I might just go have a piece now). So this week I made lemon, white, and chocolate cake with vanilla butter cream, oreo filling, strawberry filling, chocolate butter cream, and cheesecake butter cream. Like I said crazy!

The force was NOT with me!

All I would like to say about this cake is it was not a fun one. It wasn't so much the design as it was just one of those cakes where everything went wrong. I ruined two batches of fondant, the rice crispies wouldn't stay together, the face and body started cracking and it was all over just a mess. Then to make matters worse my husband came home and told me it looked like E.T. So I changed the ears and decided it was the best I could do. This was a vanilla cake with vanilla butter cream.

Choose Juicy!

Another fun cake to design. A purse and shoes! It was crazy how easy this one was.It took some time but it was not stressful at all (until the very end). I had this cake completely ready then went out to get some lunch. On my way back my husband called and and said he was just walking by and the handles broke in three pieces (that's his story anyway). So I rushed home and had about two minutes to make some new handles. Needless to say the cake with the new handles was not as cute as the pictures but it still turned out ok. This was vanilla pound with vanilla syrup and vanilla butter cream and covered in vanilla and chocolate fondant. Everything was edible.

WWE

This past weekend has been so much fun! Not only because of mothers day (which was the best ever) but also because I got to do this WWE cake.I know it doesn't seem like the funnest cake ever but I loved it because it took me back in time. I loved drawing in high school but after getting married and having kids there just wasn't time to draw. With this cake I got to free hand the belt signs it was so much fun. I think the best thing about making cakes is I get to develp my artist abilities while also baking. Its the best of both worlds!
