The woman in the cake decorating shop offered me pre-coloured fondant, and I really should have taken her up on that!Arianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17977679825245376111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29783395.post-54238807351150131852010-11-23T00:34:37.088+11:002010-11-23T00:34:37.088+11:00Oh, that looks spectacular, Ariane!

Also, I'd recommend not using butter cream for the icing, because it's really hard to turn it red. Not to mention how much colour I needed to add to make that head black. The black icing was truly inedible! :)<br /><br />@Toni Yeah, it's a toss up, it's fun making these cakes, but it was easier when they asked for "stripey" or "with strawberries". :)Arianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17977679825245376111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29783395.post-49186513915142335152010-11-22T16:24:44.151+11:002010-11-22T16:24:44.151+11:00Fantastic cake.
