Lets go bake a cake!

Sean and I have been having a lot of fun with our cake business lately. Sean has been working hard to make improvements to the website and learning how to do lots of cool new techniques. Jennie has been standing back and being amazed at her amazingly talented husband:)

Yesterday we made a huge cake for a client in Taylorsville. We learned how to make gum paste and then how to mold cala lillies out of it. Observe:DSC02848.JPG

Here sean is adding the middles, the flowers were made days in advance. (Sean ate a lily and he said it was one of the most disgusting things ever!)

We also learned how to quilt fondant:

This was also the tastiest cake yet with fresh strawberries and fresh whipped cream in the middle!

Sean made fondant while I made leaves out of fondant:)

Here is the final product! This is one of my favorite cakes ever!
