OKay.. I'm SURE this has been posted/talked about before, but I surfed a good bit this morning and couldn't find anything on it directly. So here goes. I am making a birthday cake for my son today as his party is tomorrow and I certainly have enough things to do then without worrying about decorating the cake. ![]()
SO.. having said that. I can do it today, refrigerate it tonight and bring it out tomorrow. Thing is we're having his party/picnic outside and it's supposed to be mid 80's here tomorrow. Will there be excessive condensation? Can I prevent it? What to do if I have water drips all over my cake? Does a FBCT have excessive condensation?
Sorry to bombard with questions.. I've never done the day ahead thing I usually always wait till the last minute till I'm running around like a maniac trying to get the cake and everything else done at once. And entertain the guests that ALWAYS show up an hour early. (You know family.
)
Any help/ suggestions are GREATLY appreciated.
Condensation occurs when your enviroment is humid. So those who live in the winter year round are lucky becasue it is dry! I just dab the small drops of water with paper towel.. If possible remove as much humidty from the enviroment. Or place by a dehumidifier if there is great concern.
I guess I could go ahead and ask this here too as it goes along with the previous post..
I read the whole tutorial on FBCT and was wondering do you HAVE to do an outline? (needless to say in black) I'm doing curious george and he doesn't have a black ouline. Couldn't I just do it w/out the black outline? Or will it run? Also I really like the effect of the star tip.. could you decorate on top of the transfer with the same color icing and a star tip? Or maybe just do an outline of Curious George in FBCT and then place it on the cake and fill in with the star tip? LOL.. Hope some of this is making sense... I guess I'm just gonna experiment with it today as I have the whole rest of the day to work with it. Any suggestions/tips on this would be greatly appreciated as well.
