Baby Shower Cake Disaster Prequel
Chocolate cake with mixed berries filling. Thanks LaSombra for your awesome choc. cake recipe! Lessons learned: 1stly, MAKE SURE CENTER DOWEL GOES INTO FOAMCORE BOARD! 2ndly, torting each layer wasn't smart/necessary! 3rdly (beyond my control) humidity kills the integrity of MMF! Never made it the 2-3 hour drive to my cousin's shower - heck, never made it to the end of my uphill driveway!!! Very delicious though!
these are great
How sweet! Good job!
Thank you so much, Sunspotalli and PJ37
These are so cute ! I love the laces :D
Thank you. Actually the laces were the hardest part to do. Everytime I thought I had made the holes big enough and tried to roll the laces out thin enough (even though I used my sugar craft extruder) the laces were difficult to get through, would dry quickly and break. That's why the second one isn't event tied. lol
Adorable - I love that you actually laced them!
I love these little 1st shoes........too sweet!!!
Good job! I know how hard these shoes are to make! You did great!
I found out the hard way about the laces. It's much easier to use real ribbon, lol. Great job!
LOL, I thought the lace untied was an artistic statement. These are adorable. another great job.
I think it looks fabulous!

Is really good! I think you are more worried than you should be. How clever. ;-D Humidity is not fondant's friend. :evil:
Ugh, I'm sorry for your disaster. Because it looked fantastic! Glad you got to eat it though.
Thanks all! I'm just glad that I have a handle on why it happened and that if I ever decide to attempt this one again I know what to do differently and hopefully come out with much better results!
