My cousin called and asked me for a strawberry Minnie Mouse cake for my cousin's 2nd birthday. She gave no other direction than that, and left me completely on my own! This was my first time working with black homemade fondant, but it went well enough. I like making everything from scratch, so I always make my own marshmallow fondant. I tried piping the lettering onto the fondant ribbon, but it was hard to do, so I had to cleanup a couple of mishaps. For my first fondant birthday cake, I was pretty pleased!
