Stacked Books
I made this cake for my mom's birthday. I was disappointed with the results. My fondant drooped and the cakes looked sloppy. I resigned myself to having old-looking books. I tried to rush the lettering and lustering part of the decorating, though, and made a sloppy mess! I told my mom that these were books she dropped in the bathtub. :) She loved them. Jane Eyre is chocolate cake with cookies and cream filling and chocolate fondant. Green Dolphin Street is strawberry cake with lemon cream cheese filling.
Don't be so hard on yourself!! I love these books. Old things have so much more character than new things do!!! These are so goin in the favs!! Thanks!
They're wonderful - they are perfect for antique loving book worms. From the ashes of disaster grow the roses of success!! :D
WOW!!!! LOVE IT....ABSOLUTELY AMAZING
I stared at these for quite a few minutes in total awe. Then I got to your comment about disappointed in the results??? Are you kidding? I LUV this antique book look! You be sure to tell everyone it was your total intent! They don't even look like cakes. Duff would be proud of you!
Aw shucks, you guys. Thanks! You know how it is when something doesn't come out the way you expect/want. I will try not to be so negative! Thanks. :)
absolutely awesome! Hopefully one day I can create something like that
I just LOVE these - and i have to make a book in a few weeks, hope I can do half as good!
I think they are great. They look like someones favorite books that are read over and over. Most people don't even see what we consider imperfections.
Your books look great - They are fantastic - I just love them!!!
You did a fantastic job! They may not be what you were trying to do but I think they look great! and they are going in my favorites!
Until I read your description I would have never known that it isn't the way you intended!! I think they are wonderful!
i would love the instructions. First time to ever see anything like this. Good job. [email protected] thanks Sunday from Alabama
I absolutely love them! "Happy little accidents" as Bob Ross would say. Your pages look great. Do you have a picture of the spines or can you tell what you did? Also I was wondering about separation supports - did you use a board and supports between them. I seen a show on Food Network with someone making books and they didn't show or tell if she put supports between the books. I was just curious. Again don't be hart on yourself - they look fantastic!
These are amazing! I think they look GREAT!!!
