You will never be happy if you continue to search for what happiness consists of. You will never live if you are looking for the meaning of life.
LOVE WHAT YOU DO. DO WHAT YOU LOVE
A close personal friend asked that I make a 10th birthday cake for her daughter. Since I use every excuse to bake, I decided to make a french themed cake because her daughter attends a french immersion school. As usual my imagination soon got away from me, I imagined the eiffel tower standing majestically on my cake; a French poodle gracefully tossing its head in indignation over an imagined human slight and of course a man smoking a pipe wearing a beret. Not sure where the last bit came from but who says an imagination has to be rational.
Being super excited I did a quick a google search for templates and I found my eiffel tower, poodle, beret and pipe. I even found an “OOH LA LA” template. To make the fondant figures, I got some pink fondant, added some tylose powder, rolled it out to an 8 millimeter thickness and let the fondant dry for an hour. I cut out my templates and placed my cut-outs on the fondant. Using an xacto knife I cut out the fondant figures. I got my cake out of the fridge and placed my eiffel tower, french poodle and beret on the cake. I must say it looked awful. I now realize is that a cake must have symmetry and one cannot simply slap different figures on a cake.
I ended taking off all the fondant figures, and added circles of differing shapes to the cake. I think it looked elegant at the end.
