I had class last night and yesterday afternoon I was busy getting all my supplies ready and my 2 cakes ready since we were learning how to stack cakes on top of each other.....I had a 10 X 3 and a 8 X 3 cake...there were both torted and filled and the 10" already had the fondant on top and as I picked up the 8" to carry over to where I would put the fondant on that one, I dropped the cake....it smashed into many pieces. I have NEVER dropped a cake before, I could have kicked myself.....so it's an hour until I have to leave for class and I only have one cake.....I didn't have any shallow 8 " pans so I made another cake in 2 9 " pans since they were shallow and I could bake them in 30 minutes........long story short, somehow I managed to get the cake baked, filled and frosted and covered in fondant and made it to class just a couple minutes late. I'm dissappointed because now I have a 9" stacked on a 10" and it just doesn't look right, our instructor who really didn't seem to have her act together last night had no suggestions on how I could decorate it since it's not really proportioned right for a stacked cake and we ran out of time anyway so here I am this morning, staring at this cake and wondering if I should decorate it at all...guess the frustration of having dropped the first cake and substitute with a different one, that by the way isn't level, I didn't have time to do that too........I guess I just needed to vent a moment with folks who might actually understand what I am feeling here.
