First attempt with Fondant

Hello All!

I was recommended the Planet Cake book by a friend, so got it for my birthday and couldn't wait to try it out! Its got some beautiful ideas in and is clear, with diagrams and pictures to show you what to do.

Here is my first attempt anyway:









I'm quite impressed with them considering I haven't worked with fondant for about ten years! The secret is the ganache stage to make the top level and smooth for the fondannt. They do look soooo pretty, and professional. I am definately going to do these again, probably for a birthday present for someone.

I have a bunch of recent baking photos to load, please check back soon!

Happy baking!

New to blogging

Hello All

After many months of following other cooking, dancing and craft blogs like an addict, I figured I should give it a go and share my creations and catastrophes with other people too.

I normally bake at least once a week, and always have various craft projects on the go. Ill start loading pictures up shortly.

If you would like to see anything in particular or have any questions, please contact me!

See you soon!
