Heres my first purse cake with some fondant and gum paste make up. What do you think?
It has a perishable filling so it's in the fridge
AAdorable! Really nice clean work!
Side note-I hate to mention it & be a big downer-be careful putting cakes in a regular fridge. Cakes absorb smells. I learned the hard way. If you have anything in the fridge, the cake will absorb it & taste funny. Many, many years ago I baked a cake for my family & put it in the fridge. There was a whit onion sealed in a ziploc. Didn't matter. Cake was awful. Now, I have a separate fridge for cakes.

You can put the cake in a box with some baking soda to absorb the smells and the extra moisture to protect the fondant.
Awesome job on your first purse!
PLEASE take another picture of it with a clear background - you'll thank me later cuz this one is awesome and you'll sell a lot of them. If you're worried about the cake absorbing pizza odors (and it will - eventually) just put it in the fridge till the fondant gets hard then cover it with plastic wrap. Remove plastic when you take it out of the fridge so that it won't leave an imprint on the purse. You must be so proud. Excellent job!

Nope! Baking soda is great for keeping a fridge odor free but not a cake. The cake will absorb orders. Don't risk it.
wow! this is fab!! I've got my first purse cake to make this week. ............. eek! lol
AThanks everyone!! Glad you all like it!!
I didn't make a tutorial for this, but ask any questions you'd like.
The makeup is made out of fondant. In fact, everything is fondant except the strap, that's gum paste.
