Hi Guys!!!!!

This is the cake I made for our big family Thanksgiving lunch. It's spice cake with french apple filling, cream cheese icing and all the decorations are made with MMF. This was my first time working with luster dust too, I loved it! The turkey on top was made by my husband. I had fun making this cake icon_smile.gif

What a fantastic job you did! If your family is anything like mine they will say "this is too pretty to eat"! But once you tell them the flavor and the filling, they wil be eager to dig in. Happy Thanksgiving!

Thank you!!!!!!!!!! I was nervous about the luster dust colors, cause I had to make do with what the lady had at her store... but I think the plum color looks great, it really accents the gold and green.

The leaves are amazing! I love how vibrant, yet elegant, they are! A job well done! I wonder if your family will have a hard time eating your creation!!

No one would cut into it--- so I just went ahead and started... so then people would eat it hahaha. The favors were awesome, my favorite combination so far!

Your color combinations are great, very "autumny". You should be proud of your hubby for helping and doing such a great job on his part too!
