I Was Here

This is my FIFTH and LAST Threadcake...for this year anyway. All of my "cake stories" have been really short. Since this is my last one I will be writing a novel (or at least a pamphlet...brochure?)!

I do not think I stand a chance at winning this thing (have you SEEN the cakes on this...RIDICULOUS!) but I will be back next year and it will be BIGGER, BADDER and MORE AWESOME (yeah I kind of quoted Ace of Cakes...HEY MARY ALICE!!!).

I found "I Was Here" and thought "THAT. IS. SO. FUNNY!!!"

I drink copious amounts of coffee at work and for some reason I am super duper messy. This messiness causes me to leave coffee rings around my desk. Yep, I was there!

I make a cake...FROM SCRATCH this time. A pound cake.

Then I cut out the mug shape then chilled it and went to make the arms and the talk bubble. While it dried and my cake chilled I ran to Costco with my sister and her baby.

When I finally got home I covered the cake and the cake board with white fondant.

After that I started to paint the fondant...and that is when I noticed that my fondant was sticky. I swear I ALWAYS see people chill their cakes, why can't I? Perhaps its because I live in a tropical climate...I don't know.

SO anyway the fondant was sticky and it made painting hard...very hard.

After that I stuck on the arms and he was ready for his close up.

I love him.

After that (wow I use the word "after" a lot) I cut him open. Then I killed him!!!!!

BWAHAHAHAHHA!

This was fun! See you all next year.
