Well...This cake was..*ahem* a challenge. It was my first time working with MMF, my first time attempting a concept cake, my first time doing a stacked cake...all in all, I think I did a pretty good job.

Happy 4th!

You did a wonderful job, really cute cake! Good for you! Happy 4th of July to you!

Kudos on the cake well done!!!!

WOW, really good job!! You did fantastic getting your MMF to come out red.

Looks like a success all around!

your cake is so pretty! you did a great job! the colors are pretty i can never get my red that bright.

That is an awesome looking cake if you havent done so already you should enter that into the 4th of July contest. If its a 1st time with fondant it looks like you have done it before. Keep up the outstanding work.

Thanks everyone for the awesome words. I took the cake to the party and you all were right, it was a hit. Especially amongst the kids. All the kids were wearing red white & Blues, so naturally, they wanted something to match their clothing..they all asked for the Red White and Blue cake. The grown ups loved it. My mom (whose favorite color is red, and favorite cake is chocolate) took half the chocolate top..LOL

Thanks again everyone! I have a birthday cake to do this weekend...YAY!!

Great job on your cake! I too say you should enter your pic of it in the 4th of July contest!

You did a great job!

Great job for your first! Fondant looks very smooth and neat.

awesome job! How did you get your red so vibrant? What brand coloring did you use?

WOW that cake looks awsome....Keep up the good work
I was wondering about the red also.....what coloring did you use?

Great cake. love the red color.

Believe it or not, that is 1/2 oz of the Wiltons Red Red and 1/2 of the No Taste Red...While the color was beautiful, my mom says the fondant was still bitter tasting. Thanks for the compliments guys..you make me wanna strive higher
