As Steph and I perused Pinterest looking for an idea for Duke's birthday cake, we kept saying "we are going to keep this birthday party simple". Of course my idea of simple and Steph's idea of simple differs. Me: "Really can't we put a toy dump truck from the Dollar store on top of the cake and call it good".
Steph: "Nope".
So glad we didn't. This cake was SO fun to put together.
And I LOVE working on projects like this with Steph.
And boy can we make a mess!
Melting the marshmallow for the fondant
Mixing the powdered sugar in...lots of powdered sugar!
It's getting really stiff here
...where's "Pa" when we need some man-muscle?
Time for kneading...very therapeutic.
Divide and color.
Yeah...and try to keep Ethnie's blue play dough out of it.
Time to create...
Can we make this look like the vision in our heads
... a combination of several different cakes on Pinterest.
Chocolate rocks.
Finished!
Happy Birthday Duke!
