Description
I choose a cake no one else had made an entry of.
Im still a relatively beginner cake decorator. I have a degree in Sculpture, and have worked at a bakery, as a server for over 2 years now; only doing basic cake things. It seemed time to combine the 2 things.
The cake is red velvet:
from a box, on a schedule here.
banana butter cream frosting:
basically you sub the shortening in your basic buttercream recipe with a banana.
homemade fondant:
my first time ever, i applaud anyone who can do this and not make a HUGE mess.
for the little guys:
the body is cake, then covered in candymelts, then covered in fondant.
I only used a few toothpicks to hold on the appendages (head and arm, of the big guy)
*i used different colored frosting and candymelts at different stages to make the process more apparent. so after i do a few of these i can make them into an INSTRUCTABLE!
