how do you make a cake purse???? I would like to make one for my mom bday... I made a shoe for the first time last night don't look to bad for the 1st one.

Go to the article section (at the top of your screen) and they have dircetions in there

You just have to stack small sections of cake and dowel. I made one for my very first try with fondant...didn't turn out great, but you could tell what it was supposed to be. I think it's really all about the details and decorations. Good Luck!

I baked two 9" rounds and and cut part of the bottoms off, glued them together with buttercream and then set them up on the flat ends. I placed a light crumb coat of buttercream and then decorated with buttercream stars. It was really easy to make and I didn't use dowels. The handle was made from fondant with toothpicks in each end so that they would stick into the cake. It's really easy to make one like this. The makeup was also made of fondant. The little girl I made it for loved it and so did all her friends.
