A gold weddingcake for my in-laws - I would have liked more gold on it, but the colour was nearly impossible to paint with, not at all as I remember it. But nice to know I still have some skills, I was actually pretty nervous about this one...<br />
<br />
It´s a layer-cake with strawberry mousse and lime syrup - nice and light because we had it after a scrumptious dessert-buffet :)<br />
<br />
The figurine on top is the original from their wedding 50 (!) years ago, so very nice - makes me sad I didn´t save the one from our own wedding 20 (!!) years ago. But that one was terribly plastic anyway, so never mind.<br />

This is my contribution to Sealand Cake Show 2013. I´ve had the image below lying in my "next project" folder for ages, and if wasn´t for Sealand Cakeshow, I never would have come to creating this little piece. -Which was fortunate, because it won first prize gold - much to my surprise! :)</div>

A mini dummy - just playing around with a new type of fondant. Seems like the fondant-issues i´ve had are close to a solution. A major relief, since i have to make the most important cake ever; My daughter´s confirmation-cake a couple of months from now ;)<br />
<br />
I´m beginning to look forward to play with fondant again. Loving this!<br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This weekend I spent in the company of fondant, icing and cake tools. It surely has been a while, t</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">he last fondant cake I made was in </span><a href="http://cakeryblog.blogspot.dk/2012/10/halloween-pumpkin-cake.html" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">October 2012</a><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">..</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I've made lots of decoration work since 2012, but no real cake projects. So it was fun to try again - I admit I'm a little out of practice, but it went anyway. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The cakes are for my cousin's little pretty girl who had a christening today and they are plain layercakes with raspberry mousse and lemoncurd. </span><br />

I found this recipe online that looked interesting. It called for peanutbutter and brown sugar and the divine smell of freshly baked muffins <span class="hps">attracted</span> <span class="hps">the residents of the house, gladly offering their tastebuds...</span><br />

<span class="hps">We were all quite puzzled to find out that these little wonders tasted of absolutely nothing...?</span><br />
<span class="hps"> It helped a little with a fair amount of chocolate ganache.</span><br />

This years gingerbread house is inspired by techniques found in Eddie Spence´s<strong> </strong><a href="http://cakeryblog.blogspot.dk/2012/09/the-art-of-royal-icing.html"><strong>book</strong></a><strong>.</strong> </div>

The inside of the house is a mess, royal icing all over the "floor" so i had to shield off the windows. </div>

I used my basic <a href="http://cakeryblog.blogspot.dk/2010/12/basic-sugar-cookies-recipe.html" target="_blank"><strong><span style="color: black;">cookie recipe</span></strong></a>, rolled a ball, marked the toenails with a teaspoon, added a few wrinkles with a knife, baked - and dusted with cocoa.

This is an orange layer cake with light green vanilla/white chocolate filling. There are three cakes inside and it should feed about 20-25 persons. It´s rather big, the plate is 30 cm and it´s about 25 cm high. It is black as the night with no blings or sugar gizmos - just a plain ol´ pumpkin.<br />

In RL this cake/dummy is so dark blue that it´s almost black. It looks almost velvet-ish. Real nice!

This is what i brought to Scandinavian Cakeshow 2012 - a small piece for the danish table. Not much due to the everlasting lack of time, but i felt the need to contribute even a little something, because Tårtdecor puts so much effort in this arrangement to please all us scandinavian cake-nerds. :)<br />

We had a great weekend, i got home quite late last night only to take an early morning flight to the other end of the country to participate in product training regarding aggregates to forklifters -what a contrast- so now i´ll drag myself to bed to recharge for working overtime most of this week. -Yay.<br />

It looks nice though, no show-stopper, that´ll be up to the other incredibly talented cake creators who participates in the competition :)<br />
I can´t wait to let my self be intertained with beautiful cakes and great company this weekend!<br />
