An acquaintance asked me to make her wedding cake. Excited by this daunting task, I was also a little worried that my skills were not up to par for that kind of a project. As I'd never worked with fondant on a square tiers before, I decided to practice. Happy 30th birthday to The Husband....with a tiered fondant cake.
OY. This is not how the corners are supposed to look. I didn't publish this until now because I didn't want the bride to have a heart attack.
Bottom layer.
Trial and error is my teacher. The top layer turned out better and I figured out how to make the corners nice. Ready to tackle the wedding cake; the lifelong happiness of a young couple resting squarely on my shoulders. The Big Reveal, my first wedding cake:
For variety, I made 3 kinds of cake. The top layer is Lemon Poppyseed, thanks to Baba Boyko for the suggestion. The middle layer is French Vanilla, and the bottom layer is Chocolate Cherry. The bride was happy. If the bride's happy, we're all happy.
And they lived happily ever after.
