This week I learned how to make a cake using fondant frosting. It was a pretty big mess and I'm not really used to having my counters that dirty...I'm a little paranoid. It turned out really good and it tasted good too which I was glad about because a lot of hard work went into making it. Thanks for coming over and showing me how it's done Audrey!
The frosting had to be super firm...that's not flour I'm rolling it out on, it's powdered sugar. I couldn't believe how much powdered sugar went into that little ball of frosting. My forearms were burning by the time I was done with that thing.

Once the frosting was firm enough it was colored (see the blue on the cake) and then rolled to cut the designs out of.
Here's the finished product! I thought it turned out really cute. The 'T' stands for Travis...he really likes cake. Sorry you weren't there to taste-test Trav!
