I will not be working on any or this cake anytime soon. I am due on Monday and my last cake was on September 20th for my son. I am now just relaxing and thinking up ideas on my next project which is a restaurant themed cake for my DH's work. I was thinking on making a stacked cake with fondant figurines on top but then I saw the chocolate transfers and I love to try them and they look beautiful on the sides of stacked cakes. Can you mix both or will it look ugly? I think it might be tacky but I'd like to know if anyone has tried it and if anyone has a picture I would like to see what it looks like. I have sheets from this website to do my design and all so as soon as I feel better I will make this cake. I so want to make a cake but I will regret it half way there!!! Any ideas welcome thanks

Congratulations on the baby to come. I can't believe you're still thinking about cakes, talk about addicted! I wish you a fast, easy and safe labor and delivery and a wonderful, healthy baby. Many hugs!

Hey momma, I know how you feel - my little one is only 3 mos. now and came a week after my due date!!! I think that choc and fondant will be best on their own. It depends on the shape of the cake and theme (fun, elegant, whimsical...) which 1 to use. I hope everything goes well with you and baby!!!

cake dec..

you can do the backgrounds with the chocolate transfers and have the fondant figures, "working" the restaurant?

you can do a sort of "perspective" like the paintings in the COSBY show...I don't see why you cant mix mediums...Painters do it all the time!

PS: congrats!!!

Getting back to baby.... soft part of my heart.
I always say the reason we are so miserable the last month of pregnancy is so that when the baby comes, we love it so much we could just eat them up!

Thank you all I actually want the top to be a table with people eating but I also like the chocolate transfers, I just want to do a little stacked cake regular not whimsical, 10", 8", 6". I was thinking on the top to do a table server taking care of a table, around the bottom two cakes do little chocolate transfers that represent the restaurant I know they would love it and get a kick out of it and I gotta keep practicing until my Christmas baking days, because my DD's birthday is in January so I gotta get my practice on so she can have an amazing cake for her birthday
