How to learn how to make fondant icing by Kristin

"It was quite a workout, but the end result was worth the effort!"

How I did it: I decided that I wanted a cake with fondant for my 28th birthday.  So I bought everything I would need, did some research and then got to it!  Being in Japan I wanted a Cherry Blossom themed cake.  I wanted white and pink, but my fondant ended up too yellow for what I wanted, so I went for pink and purple.  The purple looks a little more gray than purple, but I still love it!  I am having a few friends come over after my husband gets home from work to help us eat it since it is HUGE!

    It’s actually quite easy! I have used a recipe similar to this and it just takes a bit of kneeding, but turns out great, and actually tastes good, as opposed to the kinds that taste like cardboard.

    So my birthday is the 24th, and since we are so far from home and my husband is not much for baking, I will be making my own cake this year. I am going to do a fondant icing on this cake. Not sure if it will turn out or not, but I figure it is worth a shot. Even if it is ugly, so long as it is edible then I guess we’ll be eating it! I’m really excited to try, but nervous about how it will taste…..

    This just fell into my lap 17 months ago

    That babyshower cake in the previous entry never happened however when my niece requested a Hannah Montana guitar cake I knew the time had come.

    I had a couple of problems getting the fondant onto the cake but other than that it was a great experience. It helped that I made all the components over a three day period. I was only 45 minutes late to the party! ;)

    I have a baby shower cake to make coming up 2 years ago

    Maybe I’ll experiment a bit before hand. I should schedule it on my calendar to make sure the experimentation gets done way before the cake is due.
