Since I’m a baker, I got together with my cake baking bestie, and came up with a small way to promote the efforts to “Save The Tatas” - we baked a boobie cake! <span class="text_exposed_hide">…</span><span class="text_exposed_show">It was fun, tasted fabulous &amp; we spent the day thinking about how important it is to raise our awareness.</span></span></h3><br><br /> <h3 class="UIIntentionalStory_Message" style="font-weight: normal;"><span class="UIStory_Message"><span class="text_exposed_show">The pan we used for the boobs is actually a butt pan, funny how those two assets look interchangeable in cake form right?&nbsp; lol &nbsp; After the cake cooled completely we crumb coated it in a thin layer of buttercream, then we covered the girls in marshmallow fondant aka MMF, which tastes so good!&nbsp; I'll take MMF over store-bought fondant anyday.&nbsp; The ingredient list is minimal, and you work those arm muscles pretty good with the stirring and kneading it takes to make it.&nbsp;&nbsp;</span></span></h3><br><br /> <h3 class="UIIntentionalStory_Message" style="font-weight: normal;"><span class="UIStory_Message"><span class="text_exposed_show">After the MMF we used more buttercream to make the dress, which we covered in luster dust to give the "fabric" a nice shimmer.&nbsp; The pink ribbon was a must, and for that I just colored a little of the remaining fondant pink and used my ribbon cookie cutter.</span></span></h3><br><br /> <h3 class="UIIntentionalStory_Message" style="font-weight: normal;"><span class="UIStory_Message"><span class="text_exposed_show">Stay tuned and one of these days I'll share my marshmallow fondant recipe with y'all as well as step by step instructions on how to make it.</span></span></h3>Jushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03563056693570824818noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6234643431412282805.post-11054061258033217992010-10-13T12:57:00.000-04:002010-10-13T12:57:51.338-04:00So this post marks the start of my brand spankin' new blog, and what better way to kick things off than with the mention of a giveaway?&nbsp; Not just any give away, but a great giveaway.&nbsp; The ladies over at <a href="http://mixologycrafts.wordpress.com/">mixology crafts</a> are giving away a Gypsy on October 15th.&nbsp; Like many of y'all crafters I've already got a Cricut which I love, so a Gypsy would be a wonderful addition to my coveted craftin goodies.&nbsp; <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://mixologycrafts.files.wordpress.com/2010/09/mixologycraftsgiveaway1.jpg?w=480&amp;h=300" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://mixologycrafts.files.wordpress.com/2010/09/mixologycraftsgiveaway1.jpg?w=480&amp;h=300" width="320" /></a></div>Y'all got less than two days left to enter the giveaway so get on over there to <a href="http://mixologycrafts.wordpress.com/contests-challenge/">mixology</a> to enter!Jushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03563056693570824818noreply@blogger.com0
