It was a super hot week this past one. I had a huge wedding order and one birthday cake. I really didn't want to be inside baking on such wonderful days, so I paced myself and made what I could ahead of time and crunched everything else into the last day and a half. I was contacted only a couple of months ago to make this wedding cake and cupcakes and I am so glad I had an opening for it. I absolutely LOVE it! The cake was something so different and non-traditional. The butterflies were a new one for me as well, but I love how they turned out :) . I made 150 of them and painted them all with lustre dust. The cake was red velvet on top, french vanilla in the middle and deep chocolate on the bottom. All the cupcakes were a mix of flavors with my yummy vanilla SMBC and a new dark chocolate buttercream. So Yummy!!
And the birthday Thomas the Train cake. I think every three year old loves Thomas! My little guy went crazy over this cake. I tried out my new lettering. I found it difficult to use, but I will just need to practice a bit more. The gumpaste kept sticking and then ripping...any suggestions on what I could do to make it easier and more clean looking??
