Opening up another session of FNCC!  Everyone is welcome to share what they have been up to this week, post photos of their work, ask for help or provide help if you are able to.

I am late getting started tonight as I delivered  cake to a grand opening for a local art gallery.  It was my first cake delivery disaster as the top two tiers fell over going around a turn (for which I was going very slow).  Thankfully I wasn't too far from home so I was able to return home to make repairs and save it.  It was more eventful of an evening than I needed!  I'm not 100% sure what I did wrong but one corner of the second tier seemed to collapse a bit and that is what I believe lead to it toppling over.  I lucked out in that I had finished the cake with ganache that had a bit of a spackled effect rather than being mirror smooth so the few blemishes weren't noticeable.  I was also lucky that it was a friend who requested the cake so he was very understanding when I was late.  The cake was a hit and people didn't even know that I had to make a panic repair on it.  Phew!  I'll post pics once I get them off my camera.

I hope everyone else has had a less eventful evening and week!

Oh wow Kelly, great save!!! Can’t wait to see the pictures.

I did a  Tim burton theme cake, the awful part was I had to make a grave that said “sparky” and that is the name of one of my 2 dogs! 

Pre-toppling over:

After repairs.  The edge of the top tier was crushed so I angled it off ☹:

This is their logo and they use bright pink on their website is how I cam up with the design:

That was an awesome save

This was my only cake this week. It is my very first square cake! It is an 8 inch double barrel. I was thankful for a design that I could play with and not need to make perfect especially with the late notice from my coworker. Lol. It is a Minecraft themed cake covered in crushed oreos and graham crackers. The little Lego topper was put together by the kiddo and his mom then given to me to place on the cake. Both my kiddos love Minecraft so they have been drooling over it. Hehehehe. 

**Very nice save lady! Don’t think I would have been able to pull myself together long enough to fix it. Lol. 

I had fun this week. My neighbor's little girl was turning 6. The party theme was Rainbow Unicorn Princess. So after brain storming her mom and I created a 10 inch rainbow French vanilla cake with chocolate ganache and strawberries filling. I also made 4 dozen sugar cookies within the theme. I will post pictures later today as they are on my phone not my computer. Her mom made "unicorn popcorn" for the movie she planned to play during the party.
