Birthday Cake For My Karate Sensei

Birthday Cake For My Karate Sensei on Cake Central

Made a tres leches cake for my sensei who loves this type of cake. Cake also has fresh cut strawberries in the filling and decorated with Pastry Pride. Bow was interesting because I tried making it with just candy clay, but it's been too warm and humid here in San Diego, so I had to redo them by mixing the candy clay with fondant and gumtex. It was a little better, but still sagged a little after 4 days of letting it dry. At least the fondant tasted a lot better :)

Thanks everyone for your comments. dandelion - I've found that it's easier to get the corners if you ice with the big icer tip because it puts the right amount of icing at the corners. I then use a bench scraper to smooth it out. Works pretty well with square & hex cakes. HTHs
