Okay, so the Shrek head looked more like the "You got gum-gum, dumb-dumb?" character on Night at the Museum... what can I say? It was my first attempt at sculpting a head. In my defense, it was okay until I realized it wasn't tall enough. When I added to the height, it wasn't fat enough any more. When I added to the width, it messed up the eyes, etc. Again, I learned a lot, and you can't win them all! The "Shrektacular" cake, however, turned out GREAT, I thought! :)
This week I'm working on a going away cake for a friend's daughter who will be leaving at the end of the month to go into the army. I'm very proud of Tina, and know she is going to do great! I'll post pictures of her cake early next week.
I'm also working on a *surprise* birthday cake for someone else this weekend. An update on that will be following after the weekend, as well.
Finally, I will be doing a practice run on a flip flop cake that I will make "for real" at the end of July. I plan to donate the practice cake to a local doctor's office as a thank you for all that they do. Picture of the flip flop cake will be posted as soon as they are done. Feel free to offer advice on what you like and what you don't like!
Until next time...
Confectionately,
Carter
