This cake is supposed to be a "this is your life" type of cake. On the cake are things from her life like favorite TV show as a kid, high school, college, and then I put some black boards and an apple for her being a teacher.
I tried to make the family, they came out a bit pudgy. In real life these people are fit and trim so hopefully no one gets offended by my chubby fondant family! Here you can see her college logo and a chalk board and apple because she is a teacher
Her favorite TV show as a kid was 90210 so I found a pic of the cast to add to the cake. Also, her high school and favorite football team are represented.
I have lived in Texas for about 10 months and I have made several cakes here so I have learned a few things. One thing is that Texas too hot to make cakes in the summer. Even the AC has a hard time keeping up with the hot Texas weather. I can start making a cake smooth and then the heat causes the fondant to ripple a little bit. I had this problem with the Nascar car cake and with this one a little too. So, that being said, I am not going to make anymore cakes this summer except for one cake already promised in August. So if you are thinking of ordering a cake in June, July, or August you will just have to wait until the fall. Sorry- Have a happy summer y'all!
