I work most of the night on this cake and finally get it finished and can't figure out why it just doesn't look right to me (besides the crappy free hand writing). Five minutes later I realize the frosting was supposed to be BLUE like WATER. WAHHH!
The birthday boy is only 2 so hopefully nobody will care.
Zenue, great minds think alike! I got up this morning and decided to see if I could get the fondant coral off w/o it breaking and if the color spray would change the color of the leaves and it worked pretty good. My mom had bought me that spray when it came out and I had never used it before. I hope it doesn't have a bad taste!
that cake is soooooo cute..even though i HATE spongebob..hehe i like your cake though..looks great
I love both versions of your cake (and I don't like sponge bob!)
GOOD LORD!!! How can anyone hate spongebob???!!!
Scaralidge I tell you...lol
your dislike probally wouldn't have anything in the world to do with his annoying laugh would it..lol I am kidding of course, it's ok to hate spongebob after hearing his show play on my tv everyday for the last 8 or so years I too am not a huge fan ![]()
YouR cake looks great, nice save on the blue I thought it looked good with the white, but the blue really makes it pop!
Ive used the Wilton color spray when on vacation since I didnt have my normal supplies(yes still decorating on vacation whats up with that?!?) anyway, I ate some of that cake and couldnt tell it was on there. It was easy to work with also, so in a pinch I would have to give it 2 thumbs up! ![]()
I'm so glad it worked out!
It looks awesome! Doesn't even look like the spray- it's so smooth. I agree with everyone else though, it still looked just as great before. But I'm sure that the idea of blue water was hard to let go of- even if it looked great white. Once you have a design idea in mind...it's hard to accept anything else! ![]()
You did a great job - can't even tell the spray was done after. It looks so smooth - I always get blotches w/ the Wilton mist. ![]()
Thanks ladies! The cake was for the son of a friend of my moms and after I sprayed it down mom said she was so glad I found a way to make it blue because the mom had mentioned a few times how much she liked that it looked like it was underwater.
Good save -though even white, it would be fine! I did something similar yesterday. I had three cakes - one paid, one for a party that I was hoping to drum up business Swim team) and dinner and a fancy cake for MILs bday. Well, I was DONE with the cake yesterday afternoon. I had only 3 hours of sleep the previous night and I still had a dinner to make for the bday meal... My dh, said VERY tactfully, which he never does, that my swim team cake had one thing that wasn't quite right. and he was right... I had run the black lane lines ALL the way down the lane when it should end in a T on each end... UGH.. OF course! I know something didn't like right, so I dug up the black lies at the end and piped in the T and recovered it with the gel. You can still sort of tell if you are looking, but it did look better... but my heart sank... ALLLLLL that time and effort and then "duh" how could I forget that!!! It's not like I wasn't a swimmer too or that I don't go to the pool EVERY DAY!
Hmmm... both of our mistakes have to do with water! LOL

Berryblondeboys: Honestly, if I had seen your cake, I don't think I would have noticed that type of thing
I grew up swimming and my brother was on a swim team...and I totally forgot about the "t" shape. But I'm sure there is always someone who will notice something like that. The cake looks great! ![]()
