Birthday Cake
This is straight from Wilton's 2007 Yearbook. I made this to share with my neighbor when I found out we both shared the same birthdate--today! This is the biggest cake I have ever made! It was the first time I ever used Satin Ice fondant, and everyone loved the taste better than my previous MMF cakes. Hmmm. . . The Satin Ice worked beautifully, but I am still needing much more practice at covering the cakes. I see lots of issues. LOL
how did u get the height of ur cakes?what pan size is used?if each colour is 2 layer cake, then did u bake one and cut each in half or baked in 2 same size pans...plz help b/c my cakes are always flat!!and also what is satin ice fondant? would much appreciate if u can help b/c really wanted to make this cake when i saw it in the book..thanks at [email protected]
I followed the exact instructions found in the Wilton yearbook. I baked in 2, 8-inch round pans that are 2 inches tall. Satin ice is the brand name of the fondant I used. HTHs
WOW! ! I love it! Great job! Satin Ice IS wonderful fondant!
What issues? It's beautiful!!! I hope I can do as nice a job someday!
wow is right! How on earth did you stack that? I have not tried stacking-I am afraid it would fall--yours is great! Love the colors!
Looks great! Happy Birthday!
You did a great job! And Happy Birthday. Issues. we are all our own worst critics, no?!
Happy Birthday to You! Beautiful job on the cake :)
It is a wonderful cake. Happy Birthday!
Thank you to all of you! This was also my first try at stacking a cake and adding a center dowel. I was worried, but I put dowels in the green and pink tiers before stacking. The cake is so heavy that I was worried it would topple over when it is moved, so I also put a center dowel down the middle to give me some peace of mind.
Happy Birthday! Great job on the cake. It looks wonderful.
Looks beautiful to me.
I loved this cake when I saw it in the Wilton yearbook and I love it even more now that I see your version. It looks wonderful!! Did you put cake boards under each 2 layer cake?
Great job. The cake is so vibrant! Happy Birthday
Yes, there are cake boards under each 2 layer cake.
That is adorable. Really cute.
