Busy weekend for me! I had a wedding cake to make for Friday, a birthday cake on Saturday and another wedding cake AND groom's cake on Saturday!
The first wedding cake was for Sarah, a girl I work with. She had chosen the cake and the topper she wanted far in advance so this was an easy cake.
The birthday cake was for 6 year-old Michael's Star Wars themed party. I had every intention of making a light saber out of cake but on Thursday night, I had an epiphany! Fortunately, not only did my idea work but it was amazingly COOL! I made a hollow cylinder of blue-tinted hard candy (trust me-- this was definitely a learning experience) and attached a fondant handle. I put the light saber on a cake, added the wording and then added the "amazing" touch... I put a glow stick underneath the candy and the blade of the light saber GLOWED IN THE DARK!!! Too cool! Michael sent me a thank you note for his cake and I have to admit, it was the sweetest thing I have ever receieved!
Saturday evening I created a wedding cake and a groom's cake. I took no pictures of the groom's cake because it was the ever-popular chocolate-covered strawberry cake I've made before. I loved the fall colors of the wedding cake and the reception site was amazing!
