Father's day cake part two

Sorry for the late posting of this.  My life has been very busy latley.  I made a screwball cake for my father.  I crumbed covered it with vanilla frosting. Then covered in layers with green and brown frosting to model a forest floor.  I made homemade peanut butter cups to model rocks.  I placed the turkey and deer on rocks.  I then wrote, "We're are safe again" to pick on my father for his misses this hunting season.  He loved it!!!

Brownie cups

My little sister Victoria graduated yesterday. I totally forgot to make her anything, and I didn't want to make a cake since I will make a big on for sunday, so I decided to make some brownie cups with reeses peanut butter cups.  Well I wanted hershey kisses but I couldn't find any.  One reason I chose brownies is because when I made the fudge, Victoria made a comment on how good the brownies were.  I told her that brownies and fudge taste different.  She couldn't really taste the difference oh well.  This came out good, just make sure to use foil cupcake liners (which i didnt).

Chocolate Fudge

I made fudge from a recipe on the back of a Fluff container.  Which when finished was very sweet, very good but too sweet for my taste. I put it on the list of stuff to research recipes on and try again.  My mother likes it but she wont have a very big piece.  I guess that has its perks on the healthy side.

Wow such a BLONDE

I did all of the work for my Father's day cake for this weekend, then I just realized today that Father's day is not this Sunday but next Sunday.  So I am so glad that fondant can stay for awhile out of the fridge.  The only problem that I will have is having the temperature staying the same not too high or too low.

Question for all Please respond

I received a opinion from a friend and I wanted to see if there are a lot more people agree with it.  The opinion was to have a facebook account having everything I do, on the page.  I guess this will be easier for people to view and follow what I do, on facebook.  Please respond if I should or shouldn't do it.

Father's day cake part one

For my dad I am going to make a cake covered in cameo fondant and have a laughing deer and a laughing turkey sitting on top of the cake.  There is a story behind that, my dad this year didn't get a buck or a turkey doing hunting season, so I am going to pipe on, "Another safe season!" with frosting. 



I still have a lot of work to do on these pieces but I wanted to post this up.
