  2. Christine, that is SO cute!! Great job! I know it's hard when you don't have your stuff with you. I made my cousin's wedding cake in CA in November, I took as much stuff with me as possible, but I still had to do some improvising.

  3. You are so talented!!! I love the way it turned out. And you had so much vision. While we were making those flowers I had SERIOUS doubts and had NO IDEA how you were going to pull it together and what do you know - it is amazing! I learned so many cool tricks, thanks for letting us help on it. Too bad that picture of me up top is bad, yuck! Oh well. I think the sharpie-d mist bottle is hilarious. It took me a while to figure out what he'd done. Hahaha,

  4. that is tooo precious!!! I just made my first batch of MMF yesterday. I have yet to cover a cake with it...just wanted to try to make it. How do you flavor your MMF? And do you cut your shapes with cookie cutters? Thanks for the info! Loooove your talent!

  5. Thanks everyone!
    Leslie, Good luck with your fondant, I'm sure it'll turn out great. I flavor my fondant in the melting stage with candy flavoring. For this cake I didn't have any cutters, so we just used paring knives and lids from various things :)
