Ugh. It's in my photo album. I'm somewhat pleased I guess. I must have totally used that drop string marker wrong because it made a mess. I had to add a star border to hide the mess it made. I'm pleased with it other than the drop string area. Oh, and I invented some whacky new style of shell border on the bottom hehe. Anyway, the flavor is the best part...strawberry with champagne icing. Hooah!
Great Job, RbBaker! The cake is beautiful! Congratulations from another Texan who LOVES poker and cakes too.
You are doing great! Personally I hate that marker thingy, I mark with a toothpick and eyeball a bit, haha! Great borders! Good printing too!

I think it looks delish... now where did you get that recipe? From here?
The icing recipe? It's class BC (milk instead of water) with half Crisco and half something we have here in Texas called Challenge brand butter. It's a white butter. My half and half crusted just like class BC. ...so I did the half and half class recipe with 1 tsp of vanilla and 10 drops of Lorann champagne (per 3 cups icing). That's it!
"Drop String Marker"? Are you talking about the Garland Marker? White ruler piece with another white strip that makes a U when attached to the ruler? That is for marking Garland and not Strings because it leaves the dots in your cake and you are going to have a hard time getting your strings to cover them up every time.
To mark your cake for strings you use the cake dividing wheel, and follow the lines up to your cake and make a mark in the icing, or instert a toothpick there.
Your cakes is pretty!
