Thanks Taperjeangirl, is that how to stick the fondant onto the cake then..with buttercream? Mybe thats another thing I did wrong last time..I just stuck it down with jam..that will have shown lumps n bumps up more? Well done on getting more cake orders :thumbup: are you advertising or is it purely word of mouth? Good luck, your cakes look beautiful, I'm sure you'll manage them! x
 
Thanks :)

yeah you cover your cake in buttercream, set it in the fridge, then add your fondant :)

It is all word of mouth with mine!
 
My first cake of February!

Wow, that cake looks so cute. You must be so proud!

Today I managed to make some fluff doh, no idea of the exact english name but it is used for sausage rolls etc. I always thought it would be really hard so never tried it but in fact it is a piece of cake!!!
 
I was just wondering, do you all draw out your cakes before you make them - like a design?

I have my ideas for Emmas 1st birthday cake and I want a plan this time rather than just seeing what happens.
 
i usually plan it in my head mostly!

the first couple I did I drew a sketch but after that its all in my head! I lay awake some nights planning cakes :dohh:
 
Andrea where did u buy ur letters from ?? i tried to look for them but had no idea what there called !
 
they are FMM funky!

I got mine on ebay, i really need to get a different script or all my cakes will look the same!

:D

Here she is with whiskers added!

Iv bin thinking mmh, i could maybe try and get to that standard of decorating..but no way can i get the letters so perfect :dohh: xxx

OOoo cant wait to see it Leanne! Thats the cheapest Ive seen those cupcake stands :thumbup:
 
there not bad are they , i got the cake boards too got 10 7inch ones for just over £3 they dont seem todo any bigger ones though other wise i would of had them too lol
 
Ok ladies can anyone help?

The recipe asked for white chocolate to be melted with a tablespoon of milk.When i did this it went into a hard gooey lump and clumped together...looked like scrambled egg!
So i just melted some more without milk and used that.What am i doing wrong?
