Need Help With Back To School Cake
Decorating By huckitvt Updated 9 Aug 2007 , 2:32am by alanahodgson
Hello, I'm new to the board and to CC. Have just posted a few pictures in the past month but hoping to do more in the near future. I am planning on making a cake for my son's kindergarden class the first week of school and need some ideas. It will be a two tiered fondant covered cake and I would like to do some fondant accents like apples or crayons, etc. but not sure how to make accents like that. Can anyone help? Thanks in advance! -Kat
practice a bit with your fondant first roll it out and mold it by hand and see if you can make the stuff look the way you want, i can't imagine apples,(ball you dent the top of with a little leaf on top) crayons (snake of fondant that you make have a pointed tip you can add more detail with the foodwriters), rulers(just a flat rolled out slab with some writing on it), pencils (just like crayons) etc. being too hard. did you check the galleries yet? you can always PM someone that made a cake like that and ask how they did something. most everyone around here is willing to help.
these are some of my favorite "back to school" type stacked cakes. Perhaps one will inspire you.
