Happy Birthday to Pam!

I needed an excuse to bake this week. I baked one like this last week as an experiment. It was gone within 24 hours and the last piece was fought over! It's a white cake with real bananas, homemade caramel sauce drizzled between the layers, and Wilton whipped icing. The caramel wasn't very noticable, but it must have contributed to the overall flavor that was just like a banana cream pie, or banana pudding. It was fantastic!! So this one belongs to Mama Pam for her birthday! I am already planning to put one together for the July 4th party on Monday. I'm planning red, white, and blue pedals and the cake will be 9". So more pictures to come!! :)

Oh, and the pedals are made of marshmallows. ;)

Summer has arrived.

And with summer, my access to the computer diminishes. You can imagine why, but it's okay. I'm not a big fan of it anyway.
I don't have much time for an update today. Hopefully I will soon for a more detailed description of what's been going on around here, but for now, while I have it and I remember :) I'll post my fondant cake from last week...

I took my first Wilton class on Tuesday. We made a bow and prepped a few flowers. It's wasn't what I expected, but over all, it was nice to get out and learn something new.

I made this the next day for Felicia's sister, Christina's 18th birthday. I just hope it tasted as good as it looked!! I can admit, though, it looked good! I was especially proud of the cleanliness of the design. I've never paid for a cake that looked this cool! And of course, it automatically enlisted me for the kids' cakes for the rest of my life! Hehe! That's okay, though! I enjoy it! ;)
