I've never worked with fondant before...I've done the gum paste stuff years ago to make little things, but covering a cake was a new experience. Half of it was smooth and perfect and the other half will face the back! The zebra stripes hide most oops areas.
I can't wait to plan our next cake! Just what I need...another hobby =)
What a mess ... but so happy that coloring wiped right off of things
I still have little tweaks to do to it and not even sure exactly what all those will be, but I'm quite happy with the results so far!
I bought black sparkly candles for it...that much I know
The winter weather this weekend changed most the birthday plans, so this cake and a few balloons and streamers are just about it for now.
I also realized today I've been making aprons for everyone else and I desperately need one for myself. I have cake batter, icing, flour, sugar of different sorts, chocolate, fondant and gel dye on me. Sounds like maybe I need an industrial one!
