OK , I cant seem to attatch the photo after SEVERAL tries, so I was hoping that some of you wouldnt mind looking in my photos at the sheet cake with the orange 1970 Nova on it. It was my first FBCT and I would like some honest feedback.
Thanks to all who take a peek.

You did a lovely job. I don't know how you could have done any better. I know I'm hooked on them. I'm making a bunch and stocking them up in my freezer

You did a good job! My first took me like 3 tries!! You should try chocolate transfers too, they are even easier!!

You did a really nice job, love the cake. I think I will try FBCT, but I don't have the worlds best when it comes to patience. You did good.

That does look good. Can I ask, how long did it take to make it? I'd like to try one but based on the tutorial I read, it seems like they are very time consuming - what was your experience?

It actually didn't take nearly as long as I thought that it would, I don't know for sure the length of time as I was not really watching the clock. It was really fun and much easier than I expected. I just printed the photo out in "coloring book" on my print program .
I used the tutorial by Dawn Griffin. It seems like a lot of steps but as you do it , it really is kinda easy.

You did a great job! Much much better than my first (and only, lol) try came out. Mine was too thick for some reason and took me forever.....I ended up having to add a border around mine icon_sad.gif . You've inspired me to give it another try!

What does FBCT stand for?




frozen buttercream transfer. check out the wonderful list of cc acronyms. they really helped me a ton when i first found this site. i've got this bad boy bookmarked cause i've had to refer to it so often!
