A little experiment...

For Crisp's birthday at the end of August, I decided to experiment with FONDANT!

I'd never tried to cover a cake, or decorate, with fondant before. I hadn't even touched the stuff, or read much about it. Everything that I know about fondant, I've learned from watching cake shows on TV: Ace of Cakes, Cake Boss, Amazing Wedding Cakes, Ultimate Cake Off, etc.

Since I'm such a novice, I bought pre-made fondant, made by Wilton. I spent almost an hour reading the included instructions. Then, I whipped up a cake, got out my rolling pin, and commenced in making a HUGE mess in the kitchen AND dining room...




Here is the end result:

Not bad for a first-timer, right?! :)
