I wanted to make a cake for Kristy (the brains behind beaconbookmarks.com… not to be confused with bacon bookmarks, which, although they would taste and smell great, would surely mar the pages of your favorite reads) that resembled one of her cute creations.

I tried making the fondant look like wood by marbleizing it, but it never really turned out right, so I ended up painting the wood grain on with cocoa powder. In the end I think it turned out pretty cute. Tasted great too

I made this cake for Will’s birthday party. It was a very yummy chocolate layer cake filled and crumb coated with mocha swiss meringue buttercream frosting, then covered in fondant.
