Wedding Cake

Wedding Cake on Cake Central

This cake was done for an outside wedding (95F) Iced in crusting butter cream icing. I was in tears icing theses cakes......finally found out what everyone was talking about with the crisco shortening....grrrrrrrrrr! Although I have learned if you use the store brand, the icing turns out much better. Maybe they haven't change theirs yet. The icing with crisco in it just would not stick to the cake. I was ready to scream. But made it through and I think for my 3rd wedding cake all turned out OK!

I was trying to make it look like a house with flowers around stair leading to the little mail box...their address is their wedding date.

Beautiful. Love the display. Sorry you had so much trouble with your icing. I now us Wal-Mart's brand that still has transfats and it works great. :)

Very pretty - you did a great job. I never would have guessed you had icing issues (which I know are SO frustrating, esp. under pressure).
