On Tuesday I was handed an invitation for this baby shower that was held today (Thursday). As everyone that reads my blog on a regular base know I am trying to do cakes. I volunteered to make a cake because I wanted to do another one again, and well James is getting tired of eating cake :) (so much for trying to lose weight) I as well right now don't have tons of extra money to spend so I decided I wasn't going to bring a gift until I saw Amy's nursing cover. It gave me the idea to sew one for each of the ladies.
Yesterday I spent most of the day sewing. I had to run to the store to finish the covers and well this is what happens when I leave the girls with James.
I later spent the late evening trying to put together some of the fondant shapes that would be needed for the cake.
I got my inspiration from one of my new favorite websites Wilton.com . Of course mine didn't look exactly like there's, but for only my 4th cake and 2nd fondant cake I think I didn't pretty good. It took me from about 7 this morning until 1:20 this afternoon.
Just in time for the baby shower.
I sure am glad that I did it. Practice makes perfect. It tasted good and everyone seemed to like it.
