Yesterday was my cousins 26th birthday, and she wanted a cake. So me and my other cousin (her sister) embarked on a mission to make one. We had all these ideas in our heads of how this cake was going to turn out, and we wished for the best. We started Friday night by making the two pieces of the cake, but one piece died. =( On Saturday we made another piece to replace the one that fell apart. As it all cooled, we went to Michael's to buy all the decorating things we needed, and of course they were all gone! The one day we needed cake decorating things, they were having a cake decorating class! We were on a huge time crunch so we went to a store called Hobby Lobby (which let me add, IS AMAZING!) and finished up our shopping. We then went back home and got to work. It turned out that decorating took longer than actually making the cake. We had to put the frosting in the layers of the cake, and outside the cake so the fondant would stay. Our goal was to make a green and purple cake. So for my huge piece of fondant I mixed blue and red to get purple. (DUH) But since I am so brilliant I missed over the fact that we had purple gel the whole time. It was a long process but in the end we were able to pull it off. And here it is!
