My 2nd fondant cake!

Posted on 04/02/2011 by admin

I hope you will share!

Hay I am getting better!Here is my second attempt at fondant cake and I think it looks pretty good! The bow is 110% better than my first one and the second one is not lop sided. Adding the second tier is hard so I decided to get a grasp on a 1 tiered cake first and then attempt the added tiers later.

Below is a comparison between cake 1 and 2
Cake 1

Cake 2

The bow is definitely puffier and better then before and it was a lot easier to decorate since it was not my first time. I got a lot of compliments on it too.

If you want the directions on how to do the fondant cake, including the blow check out my first cake post here!

Next week is cakes 3 and 4! I really am finding this therapeutic big time. I like doing it and the entire second cake cost me all of $6 to bake it and decorate it. This cake wold be sold for $50 plus in the bakery.

Next week is my daughter’s 5th birthday and she is getting two parties. I will post them for you next week!

    Beautiful! Any chance of getting your fondant recipe? The one I made was a bit like rubber. OK, it was REALLY bad! I want to make my little one a pirate cake.

    Following you back.

    Thanks everyone! It actually took a lot less time then the first cake and not just cuz it was smaller, it just got easier!

    For a second cake, it looks REALLY good. I don;t have the patience for such precision. Good job!

    I like them both. There is no such thing as a bad cake in my eyes. If it has icing on it, I will eat it, but there is no way I could decorate it.

    WOW! Your cakes look awesome & you have done a wonderful job on them. The 2nd one looks perfect & your 1st one really doesn't look bad at all either, especially it being your 1st one. Keep up the good work & i look forward to seeing the others your making.

    My son just turned 5yrs old & my other one will be 4 on the 11th. Anyways Happy Birthday to your daughter!
