Anniversary Cake

Saturday, May 16, 2009


Today Terry and I celebrate 3 years of marriage..... "Mawage is what bwings us togeva today" (Princess Bride) :)

So I thought since I am in the cake practicing mood this was a perfect opportunity to try out a new one. I was feeling a bit hurried so I wasn't able to relax and smooth out the butter cream like I would have liked, or let the cake sit in the fridge between frosting's, etc. Also I ran out of black dye gel so the piping work and the rest of the fondant circles didn't make their debut.All things considered I am some what pleased. I mainly wanted to try a bow. They are so much easier than I though. I watched a quick demo on You Tube and went for it. I also am sooo happy because I think I've found a butter cream recipe I like. This is another Devils Food cake mix this time with a cup of dark chocolate pudding mixed in to the batter, I'm hopping it will add to an even moister cake. And a cookies and cream butter cream filling. Yummy!!
