Anatomy of a Cake!!!

These are pictures of a cake I made for my friends Matt and Casey's baby shower. The flavor was vanilla butter cake with Bavarian Cream and chocolate Bavarian cream filling. The fondat is homemade Marshmallow fondant. Yummy!!

Here they are, enjoy.

Cakes filled and ready to be frosted




Cakes frosted




Cake covered in fondant, stacked and ready for the Partay!!



Topper made out of gumpaste to look like the invites.



What do you think, does it look like the invite?



I also made the favors:



The best part of it all was that everyone loved the cake (big bumps and all) and the flavor too.

And now back to the business at hand:

BAKING!!!!

Hey everyone. Yes, I know I've been gone forever. But I have a good reason. I've been super busy BAKING!!! Don't believe me? Well, the proof is in the pudding (ehem, frosting)

Here's my Finale Cake for course 4. Isn't it cute? well, I think so, so there.



These cuties are based* on Bakerella's mini pumkin pies. I loved making them.



*and yes, I meant loosely based

And this is the adorable cupcake bouquet. LOVE it!! Thanks Amalia!!!



That's it for now, folks. But I promise I'll be posting the Anatomy of a Cake tomorrow or maybe Saturday.

You come on back, you hear!
