Kapow!

Once again I need to apologize for the inconsistency of my posts. 451 Press has been doing server upgrades over the past few weeks. Those upgrades have led to unexpected down time. Until these issues are resolved my entries are likely to be sporadic.

Although I have not been posting, I have not been idle. Last weekend a friend got married and I had the pleasure of making her wedding cake. This was no ordinary wedding cake. No, this was a Batmobile wedding cake with Wonder Woman as bride and Batman as the groom. This cake just about kicked my butt. In the end it came out fantastic, though. The Bride & Groom loved it!

Here is a look at the cake:

For those of you interested in construction, here is a look at the cake in crumb coat stage:

The cake itself was chocolate with cookies and cream filling and chocolate fondant. I chose chocolate fondant because the car needed to be black and it’s easier to achieve black if you start with chocolate. Since the cake was chocolate it made for a nice match. The chocolate fondant tastes a bit like tootsie rolls.

Well, that’s what I’ve been up to, how about you?
