We have a winner and check out some cakes!





First, I want to announce the winner of the movie prize pack. It is Mom2Be and was picked through random.org.  Congrats and please email me your address so I can get your prize mailed out.

Second, let me tell you about the sweet sugary day I had. Last night, my daughter and I made a fondant cake for a 10 year birthday celebration at her middle school today. The fondant figure you see on the cake is her principal. I see a very strong resemblance. This was the first time, I ever tried using fondant and it was so much fun that I will be trying it again. Look at some of the other beautiful cakes that families made. Aren't they great? The school even had some special judges from  Carlos Bakery .  I tried some cake but kept it to a minimum as I finished my day as a cupcake judge for a local Iron Cupcake event. It was so much fun and I will do a post with pictures later on this week. Now I am all sugared out!

Congratulations to your winner. You have a budding pastry chef on your hands. The contest really looks like fun and I'm surprised how proficient some of those folks were with the fondant. Have a great day.
