Wedding Cake

Hello,
That cake was huge. Do you know that every one had a piece and we still had leftovers of the cake. That by far was the best cake I had ever had and prettiest! I think the shells just made the cake. Dave loved the fondant and the chocolate in the cake. I will be sending you pictures of the wedding. Thank you again.

Sincerely,

Now, on my end, I had fun making this 3-tier cake but it was soo much work! Since I was doing in my own kitchen sometimes the space was somewhat limited. Also, I can't just keep going and not cleaning after each step - I am a Virgo and with a little OCD - but, in the end it was great!

But, next time I would go for fresh flowers vs fondant.

I made this this cake for my boss's birthday; she loved and so did I. It's great to make someone smile when looking at something you made; plus I had so much fun doing it! It was a chocolate cake with coconut butter cream icing. Ans, for this icing I used coconut milk instead of water or just coconut extract; it made the icing very light and fluffy - delicious!

Then, decorated the outside of the cake with colored fondant; I only use Satin Fine fondant. See steps on how to use decorate a cake with fondant
