My Sister’s Sweet 16 Cake
Sorry I haven’t been able to update. I have been busy working on the cake during all my free time during the week.
So, my cake came out great! I had tons of compliments from my sister’s friends & a lot of them thought it was bought. It made me feel great!
So I started out my week by making 2 sets of fondant on sunday. My fondant is a basic marshmallow fondant.
On Monday & Tuesday I baked the cakes. I made each tier out of 2 layers of cake with buttercream in the middle. One layer was yellow cake & the other was yellow cake dyed blue.
On Wednesday I dyed one pack of fondant into black & I flattened the tops of the square layers & put them together. Then I covered it in fondant.
On Thursday I covered the top tier in white fondant.
On Friday I took a break & proceeded to get her guest list put together & music.
On Saturday morning I rolled out my Duffy Fondant that I bought (I bought a small pack of blue & a medium size pack on white to use for decorations). I made zebra stripes, a bow, & ribbon to go around the top tier. I placed those decorations onto the cake for transportation.
When I got to the building for the party I stacked the tiers & put on the finishing touches.
I piped out buttercream dyed blue to write on the top of the cake. I did unfortunately forget how long my sister’s name is so it became slightly off center.
I had to improvise as well do to my fondant letters not wanting to come out correctly, then i went home quickly to get a decorator tool I have, but found out the tube was missing. I quickly found a ziplock bag & put a decorating tip out a small hole to pipe out the letters.
In the center of the cake I put a topping with “16” on it… to complete the saying “Happy Sweet 16 Samantha”.
