It begins...all baked and cooling...
My container of seashells. I made these with homemade marshmallow fondant, pressing them into a mold...with the exception of the sand dollars and some of the star fish which I hand molded...
Icing is ready, cake board is ready...let's get started...
Bottom layer is stacked and iced smooth, now for the top layer...
Get out the hammer, it's time to nail these guys together!
*beep*...*beep*...*beeeep*...we interrupt our regularly scheduled programming with this exciting piece from National Yardographic...
My dog is so amazingly stealth...OR this is a really dumb squirrell (at base of tree)...she got as close as 2 feet before the squirrell ran for his life...
Now then...the cake is stacked and dowelled, ribbon added...time for shells...
Tada! There ya' have it. I love their cake topper, it's perfect for a beach wedding! At the grooms feet there is a heart drawn in the sand and it says "just married" inside...precious!
Details...

ReplyDeleteAm I the only one going nuts trying to figure out what the pieces are? Some look like little cumberbunds and buttons. Or maybe those are cannonballs? 8-}

You did a fantastic job on that cake!! It's lovely! And I'm thinking cars of some sort for some reason on your next cake?
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful job!
ReplyDeleteI think I see a sketch of a whistle in the background, no? The little black things look like they could be parts on a car....could it have something to do with a car race? Do they use whistles in car races or just checkered flags?
Hmmm....
WOW!!! You are soooo talented. Lovely, lovely cake....and I loved the bulletin from National Yardographic. beep beep beep so so funny.
