Can someone tell me on the silver buckets are most of those made of fondant? I am wondering the best/less difficult way to do this....I have to get it done with NO mistakes tonight!!!! HELP

I used gray fondant to cover the cakes and then cut a whole in the top for the bottles and ice, then painted it with silver dust and a little vodka.

I underestimated how long it would take the bottles, so I only had time to do one! Galler, thanks for your tips on the sugar bottles. Sweet Results THANKS A TON! iT WAS A BIG HIT!

cHECK OUT MY PHOTOS!

cakesbysweetness: Your cake looks fantastic! Great job!

ok my question is , if u make the ice look from jello, will it melt if touching the sugar bottles. read this from somebody who was having that problem?

How much amazing mold putty would I need for 1 beer bottle?

question, so are these bottles solid or hollow!? I guess I am a bit lost!!!

so after you cut the mold and pour the sugar in, as I am reading, you only do one side of the bottle at a time?

so you will have a seam down the sides?

May I ask how you do the bottle caps??
Thank you!

Hopefully, better than I did mine... It's that last detail, when you are in a hurry, and sugar level has dropped, that you get sloppy... ok, just cut out a circle of fondant and place it on top of the bottle, and use the side of a toothpick to make indents along the edge.. paint it with silver luster dust and everclear...

Ijust saw this post and those bottles look GREAT I don't have the time right now to go throguh the 16 pages, but I sure will and try later. Congratulations.

thank you so much!!!! your really nice to share this info. with all of us who request it .

I'm gonna try to make the bottles this month, Ive been eyeing for a year lol , i just havent had the guts to try it. Wish me luck.

btw do you guys charge per bottle?

when I make them (if they come out good) im sure im gonna get the question and my face is gonna say lol

Boy I can hardly wait to try these!!

ok so my bottles came out pretty good, but im having trouble making the candy ice.

I poured the sugar over foil and the broke it into pieces but it didnt look right and the foil didnt wanna come off.

is there another way to do this ??

can i pour the sugar into ice molds and make ice cubes?

do i need to grease the molds or anything??


this cake is for 2morrow , someone help me please

Kayla, Did you use regular sugar, or isomalt? I only use isomalt for the ice, but either should work ok. Make sure you are using the non stick foil that Reynolds makes. I have never tried it with the regular foil, that might be the problem.. Good luck..

I used regular sugar. I dont have isomalt but I just bought non stick foil. wish me luck

ok it was a success! everyone freaked out and no would believe it was sugar. everyone kept touching it lol.

using the no stick foil was way better, thanks laura

next time im gonna buy isomalt cuz the ice had a yellow tint to it

Congratulations kayla! Don't ya just love when a plan goes right.. Where's the pictures??

Heres my picture it looked alot better in person, the picture doesnt do it justice.

GrandmaG the non stick foil works sooo much better, the sugar poped right off.

Great job Kayla... loved the images, and your bottles look wonderful!
