Okay, so I'm done with my banana cupcakes.
I am so tired I don't think I want to go to the mall to watch a movie. I made fondant figures and I didn't have any idea on what to make (again!) so I tried creating colors on my own, combining this and that. My1st goal was to create a neon-like pink color but my fondant turned out to be a dark peach. So I decided making a baby head with a blanket on him. I used a toothpick to put a design on the baby's blanket.
Now the picture shows a cupcake with a round (sort of) fondant on it with an imprint. To be quite honest, I didn't have an impression mat so I took our cheese grater and pressed my fondant on it, voila! I now have an imprinted fondant! he-he
And last, I tried making another rose fondant. Which is very nice (a little bit) ...
Anyway, so sorry about the pictures. It's kinda dark here. he-he! I started so late in the afternoon so I just finished now and it's past dinner! *phew* so tired... but had fun making all of this!
This is my very first rolled-fondant cake. This is a chocolate cake covered with orange-flavored fondant. When we made it, the fondant was heavy. It was easier with MMF. But anyways, after I saw the result and the difference between rolled fondant & MMF, I would love to make another rolled fondant.
I'm not sure if you agree with me, but I think rolled fondant has a better texture than MMF, but MMF was more tasty! Anyway, I only made a simple design at class but I guess the end result was good. Anne was supervising us and taught us different techniques, like making a rope border, roses, and leaves. She gave us tips, too, when making fondant and gumpaste. It was easy to make these but kinda difficult when it comes to kneading it. But, hey! I love my finished product! I have a picture of my bf's own design, too. The bear topper is made of gumpaste and the rest are fondant. This is for his mom's birthday and his mom was very happy of her birthday cake!
