Thank God


09-01-08 Course I of the Wilton Cake Method is complete. Here is my final cake, a bit different from the text book version we were supposed to create, but no one said I couldn't use my own creativity here.

It is a French Vanilla Duncan Hines cake mix with a chocolate pudding filling. The icing is slightly chocolate by mixing a tube of Wilton Chocolate icing in with 3 cups of thin Buttercream icing tinted peach in order to give it the sand tone. 6 Roses in a bouquet with a mauve/purple bow. Shell border of white at the base of the cake accented with semi-sweet chocolate chips. The top border is a mixture of zigzags and stars with a chocolate chip topping each of the stars. Strings of purple on the sides of the cake to tie the color from the bow into the rest of the cake. "Thank God" written in green as a multi-purpose message. Thank God for chocolate, thank God my roses came out okay, thank God for the opportunity to take this class, and as a reminder to all not to forget to Thank God daily. Course II starts next week, but no need for a cake until the last class, but don't worry, my son's b-day is coming up soon, so there will be another cake posted in a couple of weeks.
