CONTEMPORARY AND CLASSIC CAKES

October 10, 2013

Today we were tasked with completing our cake toppers, decorating our cupcakes, and decorating a tiered cake to place our cake toppers.  

For the cake topper, I opted to make Hello Kitty.  I had molded the basic shaped out of Rice Krispy Treats yesterday and needed to wrap in fondant and decorate.  Working with fondant is difficult to work with because it stretches easily and dries out quickly.  Although the shape of the head was a little off and there were some areas that bunched and others that stretched, the end resulted turned out good.


After completing the cake topper, I decorated the tiered cake with a simple scallop and placed the Hello Kitty on top.


Other cake toppers made included a fish, giraffe, owl, minion, octopus, horse, rabbit, teapot, shoe, and flowers.





After the cakes were done we moved on to cupcakes.  I made mine a lavender colored butter cream and rainbow glitter. 


Each student decorated their cupcake in a different way with direction from the Chef.
