a lovely adventure

anyone who knows me knows the following....

that i am terrible at anything that has to do with cooking or baking.

sad story.

so my friend/sister rachael and i decided to make a cake.

me=sucky baker

rach=super good baker



we both had the genious idea of trying to make fondent!

click here for our new best friend peggys easy yummy fast fondent!!

see :) we made it all by ourselves!

we also learned that fondent needs to be used on a "dense" cake and the only kind we had was bettty crocker moist chocolate. so we decided that it would be better to bake it for extra time to make it "dense" ha ha not such a good idea. this was my part and i totally messed it up!

good thing our(rachels ;)) perfect fondent covered up and saved the day!!




the end.
