Baking

Tonight was baking night for an upcoming wedding cake.
Baked 4 pans of vanilla cake and two pans of chocolate for a three tiered, beach themed wedding cake!
I also did some sculpting out of fondant, something I do ahead of time when I have to add pearl dust and coloring to them, because they need time to harden.
I made sand dollars, starfish, & seashells of all sorts.
I made broken coral out of white chocolate.
Tomorrow I will make three batches of fondant from scratch.
I will also make vanilla buttercream for both the top and bottom tiers.
I will make chocolate filling for the middle tier.
I will then cover and stack each tier and add on the fondant decorations, chocolate coral and sugar pearls.
I will post pics soon! =)

Leopard print two tiered cake

I started baking a heavenly French vanilla cake Thursday night..for an 8" & 6" two tiered cake.
Friday I started with prepping and making three batches of fondant ahead. I then got started on my buttercream using my handy dandy kitchen aid mixer(I'd be lost  without it!) then even cut the layers and iced between, dirty iced the outside and returned to fridge.
I then tinted a batch of fondant and rolled it out on my super duper non slip mat! And then began the process of covering the cakes, carefully and tediously! Smoothing them out with my fondant smoother and cutting the edges with a (multi purpose) pizza cutter!
I then inserted wooden dowels in the 8" cake and then stacked the 6".
I then hand painted onto the fondant a leopard print pattern with food coloring.
I returned it to the fridge while I tinted and rolled out my next batch of fondant for the accents.
I made a double ribbon border with pink fondant and went over it with pearl dust.
I then made the bows and the "1" and "6" (16) for the topper. They have to harden over night to keep their shape and then I will go over them with a light coat of pearl dust. Tomorrow the cake will be fully assembled and ready for delivery, and they will have a vanilla cake  with vanilla buttercream and rolled vanilla fondant (made from scratch!)
And fondant accents.
Will post pics tomorrow when complete! =)
This cake took approximately 11 hours to bake and decorate! It's a lot of work and a LOT of time, but I do enjoy it! (Most of the time =) )
