Well obviously fondant/gumpaste is NOT my forte, but hey whatever. I worked ahead and attempted the fantasy flower, which ended up looking like a fantasy flop. I wanted the cake to be reminiscient of a mothers day cake, hence the scalloped edge on both the swag, and hankerchief piece. I also did little curly streamers. I wanted to toss this cake against the wall but figured it would make a mess. Ready to hear ANY advice on how I can master this fondant/gumpaste stuff b/c it's kicking my bum!

This is my final cake for Wilton Course III - it's a white cake and I added butter and almond extracts. It has a pistachio mousse filling. I know it's not the greatest, and I could use some improvement, but I've had SO much fun in the classes, if you haven't taken them yet, go for it...you will learn alot! Looks like a christmas cake, but hey it's coming up.

Well let's say I'm pleasantly surprised by the way the cake turned out! The cake originally started out as an 11"x15" sheet cake, a thin cake at that! I didn't realize a sheet cake required more than 1 cake mix! I had to torte, layer and carve this cake to get it to resemble a square! I added a little bit of almond extract to give the fondant some taste. I gave the cake away, and hopefully they will enjoy it! This was taken via cellphone camera -sorry if it's not clear!

This is my cake from my Wilton course II class - not so great on the rope border or basketweave, but considering it's my first time I figure it can only get better. Cake has royal icing flowers -can you tell I LOVE the colour purple! The flowers have "cake sparkles" on them.
