No piece of cake


I tested out the cake idea today. Bought empty boxes, eggs, food dyes, two Betty Crocker mixes and some fondant. I had issues with the fondant which I found out after tasting that it's actually quite close to marzipan! I don't think many will appreciate the taste of marzipan.

The initial idea was to mix the pure white fondant with the red and blank colourings, but it wasn't that simple. Even flattening out the fondant was difficult as it would stick to the table top! I didn't even get to the point of cutting the coloured fondants into the shape of the company logo.

Well, back to the drawing board... :O)
