Baby Shower Cake...Part Deux

Whew...finally finished the cake for the baby shower. What would be a cake decorating experience without a few disasters? And finally a finished product at 1:30am. Awesome. I went for the owl theme since the party is actually being thrown for the dad, and just went where my imagination took me. I bought pre-dyed Wilton pink fondant, but I must admit I was a little disappointed. I had a hard time rolling out the fondant, as it was drying/cracking pretty quickly, and so it made for a not so fun time covering the cake. But ah well, practice makes perfect.

I'm Almost Due....Baby Shower Cake Ideas!

I'm almost due...for another Baby Shower Cake that is! This one is an "it's a girl!" theme, which is always lovely, but it's for a co-worker and he's the dad. I was skimming through some cake ideas and since it's for co-workers and I'll be cake slaving away on a work night...I don't want to get too crazy with it. There's this one particular cake which I keep being attracted to because I think it's fun and cute and I love that you can cut into the belly, what a neat idea! How fun and sassy! Maybe I'll get to try the next...not so sure about that cake for a dad's party though. Anyway, I'll post whatever the creation is later in the week...
