Tomorrow is my second daughter's sixth birthday, but we're celebrating tonight due to the Super Bowl. She begged for a pink cake with white dots, so I thought it was the perfect time to delve into fondant. I have been addicted to "Ace of Cakes" on the Food Network for several months now, and I have been absolutely fascinated by fondant and gum paste ever since.
To say that fondant can be frustrating would be a massive understatement. By the time I got the hang of it, though, I was really enjoying myself. My daughter's dot idea switched to flowers at the craft store, so here is my finished cake, complete with pink fondant and white flowers with a white fondant trim:
