Let's go cakers!!!

Hi all! Good to know I'm not alone tonight. Working on a Bob Marley guitar for dd's bf.

I'm here for a few minutes. waiting on some cakes to come out of the oven.

How's everyone? Bob marley? Can't wait to see pics of that one! Sounds great!

Hey guys whats up? im up doing nothing enjoying not having a cake to make tonight.

I'm here I have three cakes to make but I got stuck watching the debate. Now I'm ready for sleep. I'm going down.... quickly.

Hola all! It's gonna be a long night here! Already messing up so decided to take 5. Making two cakes tonight, a Texas Longhorns topsy turvy and a sheet cake layer cake. Should be fun! See everyone in a bit!

Hi, new to the cake club thing, but I just finished some flowers for a cake next week. Still have more to do, but going to hold off till tomorrow. I wish you all the best for those of you who have so much to do. I don't know how you good people do it all!

Have a fabulous evening!
Karen

I'm here but if you don't mind, let's start a new thread just for tonight. This one's already got 7 pages. OK?

I have a 2 tier cake and a 10in coconut cake tonight. All i have baked is the 2 10in layers and a couple more are in the oven. I havent even started my bow loops or stars for the 2 tier and I have to have 3 kids plus myslef ready at 9am for soccer

I so want to see pictures of the longhorns topssy turvy cake diamondsonblackvelvet13. My sons birthday is in 3 weeks and he loves longhorns.

i am getting ready for a bridal show next month... so my and the hubby ... started making three more cakes... well two new ones and one redo ...

we took apart my monkey cake and redid the whole thing... and changed everything... i am so surprised to see how my talents have changed...

i also did the fondont on an indian inspired cake... i have a throw that my moms friend brought me from india, so i designed a cake around it, bc i love the cake...

so now i have to finish the mendhi-inspired designs on that cake... and start on a black and white wedding cake... luckily we did not have any cakes this week... just cupcakes and a tasting...

I just found this forum post. Hope I am not too late to join in. No cakes to do this week since I only do for family & friends. I do have 2 baby shower cakes in October that I have already planned out. Does anyone else draw out what they want their cakes to look like? I promised my mom I would make an Apple pound cake tomorrow for us. No decorating, just glaze and eat.

i sketch everything... because i hate to wing it...
the monkey redo that we did was einging it and i have to say that it came out awesome.. i will post pics tomorrow... when all the flowers are on...

ladies do you think that i should airbrush the black on the black and white cake that i have to do r actually buy premade black fondant...

Hi girls! My cakes are due Sunday this week. I decorated a wedding package cake for a friend, but mine are on for tomorrow. I have to make two fondant blue birds. I pretty much know how to do it, but wanted some character to them. Has anyone seen one online that would be some inspiration. Back to checking it out myself again! Happy Baking!

Anybody still up? Just finished the Bob Marley guitar. The strings broke when I picked it up, used 50/50 gumpaste and fondant, will redo tomorrow with just fondant. The batteries in my camera are dead I'll post pics tomorrow.

This may be my last legitimate friday night cake club post. I start my new business next week and have a full time decorator and a part timer that already work the shop I bought. I can't imagine having help to get all the cakes done and not being up til 3am every friday night.
It's good timiing because I have 4 weddings, 4 groom's (2 sculpted), several tiered birthday cakes and I also have a 4 tier square for 350 servings for Macy's 150th birthday party on the following Monday.
It's gonna be alot of baking!
I went and bought some 18"square pans for the Macy's cake. CK had them for $15 each, can't go wrong with that price. I was going to piece them together but decided to get the pans.
Good night all, have to go talk to my "girls" in the morning before they start delivering and doing tastings.....how weird.
