So this cake was by far the most challenging and also one of the most fun. While I don't watch the show, it was interesting to challenge my fondant skills to take it to the next level.
The cake was an 8 inch square vanilla cake, with three layers, and chocolate buttercream. The toppers were made from modeling chocolate and marshmallow fondant. I have since tried out another fondant recipe made with glycerin and gelatin and it works so much better. Marshmallow fondant has always been, well, sticky, but maybe I need to use Crisco instead of more powdered sugar. Sigh- my kitchen will never be clean.... anyway. Here are the pictures:
Such a fun cake! Happy Birthday Ben!
