Holy Cakes

I saw these cakes on a commercial for Cake Boss and I about freaked. I thought they were so cute. I wanted to show them to Jen since we're new cake decorating (mess making) buddies. I saw them again the other night on an episode that I DVRed so I paused it, rewound it, went forwards because I rewound too far, slow-moed until just the right second, paused it, and then took a picture.



That took about ten minutes longer than it should have. But I got that highly technical picture out of the deal so it was a success.

Fondant - Round 1

Jen and my first attempt at fondant:





Not too bad. Right? It turned out cute. The shape is a little wacky. The layers didn't bake up as high as I thought they would, so the cake is a little bit dome shaped. It got sent to a daycare with Jen's sister. Word is that the daycare ladies really liked it and shock of all shocks, asked if we can do birthday cakes.

I'm seeing a business opportunity here... I mean, how much would you pay for that cake?

$40?

$80?

$3.99?
