Well it may not have been perfect, but I had so much fun decorating Sunshine's cake. Monkey decided that he did NOT want a candy cake but wanted cupcakes. I enjoyed making those as well but realized that I really needed 1. more practice 2. more tips for my frosting bag 3. more bags and most of all 4. more time! I was working up until the morning of at noon and guests were coming at 3:00. I was still wearing sweats, food needed to be prepared, the kids needed to be dressed and I had a mess of dirty dishes overflowing my sink, counters, and sinks. Then I had a table covered in powdered sugar. I do mean covered, you could see some brown of the wood in places but in other places it was just a white mess. I needed to sift the sugar and it continued fluff/fall out all over the place.
Wilton's Carousel Cake DIY design and frost it. Next time I'll make sure I have a darker color. I was pretty bummed about how light the color was. Apparently using the yellow butter makes it impossible to make a lavender. Instead you get a grayish color. The royal icing turned out a nice pretty lavender but still lighter than I had wanted. I like the peach color around the bottom.
Here are 13 of the 24 cupcakes the Monkey and I made. Can you tell which are the ones he made? I will definitely need more decorating bags though.
