Safari Baby Shower Cake...My third!

This is my third cake...This cake I used and worked with a lot of fondant decorations.  The monkey, Giraffe and clouds were my first try and the elephant and tiger were my second. The clouds were really fun to do and very very easy! They came out 3D and sparkly and really cute!!!   I still have a lot to learn, especially about smoothing the fondant on the cake...but I am still trying and working on it!

Golf Cake!

I made this golf cake this weekend! I really liked working with icing recipes and found a great whipped icing one that I used on this cake!
I learn some new methods on youtube.com for icing a smooth cake and I am pretty happy with how this cake turned out!

My First Fondant Cake-Bee Hive Cake

Hello!

I am making my very first Fondant Cake!
I got the idea from the book, 50 Easy Party Cakes by Debbie Brown.

**A note about Debbie Brown**
She is FANTASTIC! She has many books and really great ideas, it is PERFECT for making at home and for any baker who is just starting out!
I recommend! :)

I also watched the tutorial on YouTube by member 09165067633, She has a video on how to make Fondant Bee's which I have made and they are pretty easy!

I will upload a pic soon!
