Margarita And Salsa
Since my son's bday is so close to Cinco de Mayo, I decided to try something more difficult. The frame is wood and PVC piping. The cake is 24" tall. The margarita cake is strawberry margarita with a margarita glaze and frosted with buttercream and covered with fondant. The chili's are white chocolate and all the other decorations are fondant.. The bulbous part of the "glass" is RKT. The salsa bowl is DDCSC, frosted with buttercream and covered with fondant. The "salsa" is chipped white chocolate (tinted). This was the most difficult cake I've ever done. I first used the ball pan to make the bowl, but it fell apart into 5 pieces as soon as I applied the fondant and had to rebake and decorate a cake at midnight.. I hand carved the next one with more success. I think it turned out great. TYFL
What is DDCSC? I know most of the abbreviations with cake decorating but I cannot think what this could be. Thanks!
deep dark chocolate sour cream :)
Nice job! I was thinking of trying this. Not with that curvy stem though! You're brave!! I was thinking of the RKTs for bottom of glass & I have a small contour pan. How did you get the RKT to stay in place? I was planning on using a Wilton support for the stem. I'm not sure how to keep the RKT in place plus hold a cake.
