I'm working on my next cake...My parents 60th Anniversay cake... So far I have the Ribbon made but not yet assembled, some roses, cala lilies, gerbera daisies and some funky looking things I'm planning on telling on people are mums.
My Maple leaves are taking forever to dry it's been so himid here with all the rain. The cakes are in the fridge getting good and cold.

What a nightmare today, I dropped a half full bag of powdered sugar in my kitchen... I was making icing for my class tomorrow night and if just flipped out my hand and went flying. Ontop of that fiasco I asked Liam to pick out cakemix for cupcakes for his bakesale at school. He picked the yellow butter recipe and they did not turn out. I'm going to have to dump them their is no salvaging them.
I should be coloring fondant now but I've run out of steam... I've got a few fall type flowers and leaves to get made.

Just for Kicks I started taking the Wilton course 1... They've changed it so i thought oh what the heck... This class is way better than the class I took 25 yrs ago...
My next project is my parents 60th Anniversary cake for Oct 21st. Wayne wants me to make the fondant ribbon for the top, I picked up some lovely fall colored ribbons at Micheal's last week.
I worked on a new chocolate sour cream cake batter from scratch. Of coarse i screwed it up on the first try i over did the butter not reading the recipe rite.... I brought it into the people I work with and they went wild for it. So I'm sure are I correct my mistake it will be just as delicious.
I spent the whole day last Sunday in the kitchen and when it came time to make the home icing I was pretty tired... I took half a bag of dark chocolate pieces a stick a butter and a heaping table spoon of cocoa powder and let it melt on the stove with dinner was in the oven. Once I got it creamed down I should added some shortening but I was experimenting I added a bag and half of powder sugar and didn't measure out how much water I tossed in but somehow I made a lovely thick gnash..
The cupcakes i started with were way better after being in the fridge for 2 days and with that thick chocolate frosting they were totally killer...
