Description
I was delighted to participate,and really seemed a challenge, from choosing the desing (in the end My 7 years old daughter helped me) to do the flowers, wich i found very intrincate (yes, I have learned many things I musn´t repeat again, jajaja.
I think tha luck was not on my side. I started making a chocolate MSC, filling with chocolate buttercream, and got out the oven just burn my arm (and now, my arm is decorated by a cresent moon) while cooling took the opportunity to make cookie dough (vanilla flavor) and bake in the shape of a cross.
The next thing was to find that the newly decorated with icing coolie had a trace of the finger of my youngest son (fortunally the head cake cover it, uffff).
Decorate the head with gray and white fondant, and chocolate mmf for the hair. The flowers of the same color as the lines of the cookie I made with gumpaste and as I tried different desing templates tha resemble as similar as possible, but broke down several times, in the end I think it was worth it.
After all my adventure I was happy because the end result looks better than I expected at first.
By the way,I have already chosen the desing for next year, as you can realice all this obstacles can´t bring me down.
