My Latest Addition

Oh gee!

Another restless night!

So I am back to playing with fondant.

This time - it's flowers!

Modelling 2

What do you do when you can't sleep at night? For me, instead of tossing about in bed, I would either do sudoku or play with fondant. Last night was one of those nights.

And this was what I came up with.

Modelling

I didn't feel like baking today. I have just finished the last slice of banana cake and I still have a quarter of a chocolate cake left. Seems like I have to stop baking for a while.

On the spur of the moment, I took out some fondant paste and began modelling. At random, I made roses and I got bored with them and went on to make figures. And so I got a bear and a snowman. I must be kidding! A snowman in this sweltering heat! What was I thinking?





The bear is actually brown but I don't know why it had a grey hue instead. It could be my lighting. Anyway my photography is bad. Never could understand how to use a camera correctly.
Simply dislike having to read the instructional manual. Hmmm...

MM Fondant Cars

Yup, the car enthusiast's birthday is tomorrow i.e. 1st of May. I managed to make three 'sports cars' out of MM fondant. Alas! Our humid climate has made the cars soft and sticky. Though it has been advised by many fondant experts not to store the sculpted fondant in the fridge, well I did the opposite. The cars are feeling cool, and not soft and sticky before I decorate the cake.
Here is a picture of the cars. As usual, my picture-taking is never up to mark.

Just completed baking the cake and waiting for it to cool before decorating. I also made some ganache to go with it.
