Cake3.jpg
This was the third cake I'd ever decorated. It was a very difficult cake specially because I am learning on my own by reading a lot . The buttercream wouldn't set and kept on melting so the basketweave was runny . I thought about scrapping everything off and starting again but I didn't have time. This is a cake for a family birthday get together tomorrow. Four of us have birthdays in the space of one month. I have tasted it though and it's good. So much for impressing the inlaws :/
You did a great job!
Looks great. I had the same problem using buttercream. It was so hot one side just slid down the cake. it was for family so we just licked it off the plate. :lol: Next time I'd use some shortening or maybe merangue. It should impress the inlaws.
