I use the "fanned method" for my cakes because I think it makes them look more like cake icing than than the traditional "rolled method." It's also much easier! My main cake making necessities include diapers, 2 sizes of pie plates, a paper towel roll (or cylindrical centerpiece like a bottle), rubber bands and a Lazy Susan. Throw in some fun ribbon, scissors, a hot glue gun, and fun topper and flair, and I'm all set! If anyone in the Central Texas area is interested in one of my cakes as a great shower gift or table centerpiece, let me know! I'd also consider sending them to you long-distance folks out there!
Below is my cake blog header photo. I created a little blogspot to help advertise and showcase them with some estimated pricing for potential orders. It's obviously a very new potential side biz! I don't have too many in photos, but plan to grow my collection with time. Contact me for more details!
Introducing: Sweet Cakes by Candace
PS: I've also started doing a new diaper gifts to welcome a few new babies! Here's one and check here for a few others!
It appears that Blogger has deleted my old diaper cake blogspot, so I will be creating a page on Clearly Candace for Sweet Cakes by Candace. :) Here is a slideshow of the cakes I've made since the beginning!
Thanks for visiting!
With Him in mind,
I cannot believe those wreaths were made out of diapers--they are beautiful, clever, and useful!! Great job like always :)
ReplyDeleteyour diaper wreath is lovely. Do you have any tutorials on how to make one?
ReplyDeleteThanks for the wreath compliments, ladies! I wish I had a tutorial, but I don't. They are easy to do, though. Simply use any form, wire or wicker wreath and overlap the diapers around it fastening them with rubber bands and ribbon on top! I hung the centerpiece from ribbon in the middle. Great for new babies on the front door or hospital room door!
ReplyDelete"Simply use any FOAM, wire...." Sorry!
