So here's my latest. I did it mainly just to see if I could. Well, that and because some one paid me.
It's a full fondant cake with rice krispy treats for the smoke stacks. The fondant was such a pain, practically melting in my hands due to the humidity. I had to work on it for a few minutes, then put it in the fridge, work for a few minutes, then put it in the fridge.
The design is pretty basic. I did try to put in a few little elements though. I put on life boats with little oars in them. I made a rope and pulley for the bow. (I'm not sure what for, but I just feel every boat needs a rope and pulley!) And I put 1911 on each life preserver.
I am proud that a person can pretty much tell it's the Titanic, even before they see the words Titanic on it. Speaking of which . . . Funny story (A story of which my better judgement tells me NOT to admit . . .then I remember I don't have a better judgement so I'll share it)
After I finished the cake, I took my pictures and uploaded them to the blog. After writing all my comments, I ran spell check. Well, I'll be damned if I wasn't spelling Titanic wrong.
So, you're probably wondering . . . .Did she really????
You bet your sweet pa-tootie I did!
I know I really should burn the evidence instead of blogging about it right!
Well, hell. If you can't laugh at yourself, who are you gonna laugh at, right?
(I mean besides Kate Gosslin)
Needless to say, Thank God for this blog.
Okay, you can stop laughing now and go back to appreciating my mad cake skills!

Yet another amazing cake (even with the extra "t")! I love that you were willing to share the extra "t" on the blog. Does this cake come with an iceberg?
