My first books and first completely fondant covered cakes. Thanks to SweetcakesTB and sjlarby for all their input, suggestions and gorgeous cakes that inspired me. This was allot harder than I had anticipated and didn't turn out as nice as I wanted. The bride was an English major and wanted these authors. The reception was at a wine bistro and the walls were lined with wine boxes--not such a great background, but different! Oh, I did receive great emails from the parents of the bride : )

Course 3 Final Cake
Fondant is so much fun to work with, but very unforgiving. You certainly can't just fix a boo-boo as with BC. Lost a few rose petals on the trip back home from class but otherwise I was pleased with this one. I rushed too much on my brushed embroidery but I plan on doing alot more practice so I can do as well as others on CC. Can't wait for the Fondant & Gumpaste class to start!

First "stacked Presents" Cake
I agree with previous posts--square cakes are a challenge! Is there a secret to perfectly square edges?! This was for my best friend's daughter and I wanted it perfect, but this is a close as I could get. I was pleased with how my first bow turned out--that was the only fun part of this cake. I am making her groom's cake,too, which is this same design but with one more smaller layer--and also square. Please help with any "square-ing" suggestion. Thanks.
