DRAMATIC DOTS

I made this polka dot cake for my friend and former high school drama teacher who mentored me for the past 4 years. I plan on surprising her with it tomorrow when I see her. I really like using the fondant on the cakes.

This is a marble cake with butter cream and cream cheese frostings. I tinted the fondant brown to cover the cake and then tinted some of the fondant pink to make the polka dots and the bottom ribbon.

SWEET BEGINNINGS

So here it is...my first cake. For those of you that know me, you will know that I am a perfectionist, some might call it a little OCD. However I really wanted my first creation to turn out well. To my delight it turned out GREAT!! I am so pleased with the final result.

This is a golden vanilla cake with butter cream icing. White fondant covers the entire cake and the primary colored flowers are also made from fondant. I am also pleased to announce that it tastes as good as it looks!
