Babyshower Cake -- for a friend

After a week's break from blogging ( I realized that now when I saw the date on the last post), I finally decided to make a post today!

On Saturday was a friend's babyshower and I am always looking for occasions to try new cakes. Since I am only learning and experimenting with new themes, after each cake I feel more confident and ready to take on more.

I made a baby basket out of cake covered in icing. To go with it I made small baby things in Fondant, which I displayed on the cake board. I made these so I could give my friend something to keep for memory, long after the cake was gone! :)


My friend loved the cake and the first thing she said was that it was too good to cut into! :) But we did make her cut it, because all good things must be eaten (since I say so)! :-D
