Practice, Practice, Practice...

As I said earlier, fondant takes practice.  Well, here's my second fondant cake.  This cake's task:  bow making!

This cake was for a new college grad at my mom's work.  (Well, new at the time. This cake was made in '07)  The recipient was also the person who helped me get into fondant-ing. Just a plain vanilla cake again, but delicious!

Tips/Tricks
   When making bows with fondant (well, bows of this style)  allow the loops of the bow to dry before putting the whole piece together.  This way, each loop will stand up and create a convincing bow.  Pancake bows aren't so pretty. ;)
