LOL!! I look at it and seriously laugh!
I took this pic towards the end of November last year – and I was so proud of my first attempt with fondant. This was my very first attempt at baking a cake, stacking it, filling it and covering it with my very own home made marshmallow fondant! Okay, let’s back up…I didn’t really bake it…it was a box mix and I used store bought frosting! BOTH of which I’ve learned are no no’s when covering a cake with fondant!!
Since then I’ve obviously learned A LOT!! So, I had to post this picture so that all of you who either have tried fondant or want to, there is hope…lots of hope!! Just keep practicing and you never know where you might end up!! Afterall, it’s only been a year for me…although I still feel like I’m a babe at this!! This world of cake decorating is HUGE and so very vast!! I can’t wait to see what the next year will bring!
It still looks like a work of art to me! I am very impressed with what you do!
Thank You for the hope… having just finished 3 “Wilton’s” courses, I am excited to get started and maybe some day I will even be half as good as you!
That does make me feel better! I have a really similar looking picture, but I’m practicing…
Wow I can’t believe how far you’ve come in just 1 year! It’s a great cake but wow you are amazing now! I’m currently watching you clean and simple cake designs craftsy class and I have already learned so many new and amazing techniques that I can’t wait to try. If my cakes look half as great as yours I’ll be satisfied I’ve still got until February 2017 to get there since I did my first tiered fondant cake this year for my daughter’s baptism.
You’re sweet, but I made this cake in 2009! That’s when I made my first cake. So…it’s been 7 years! Keep learning and practicing. You’ll be there soon!! Blessings!
