Savannah's Sweets

I can't believe it's been almost a full year since I've posted! And I can't believe this little man is 2!

I had the pleasure of making this spiderman cake for my friend's son! I made his smash cake for his first birthday and it's already been a whole year!

I'm realizing now that I never posted that either, so enjoy this compilation of cakes!

The hardest thing about cakes (in my opinion) is getting the edges smooth. The 4th photo, the baseball cake a made a year ago, is the smoothest cake with the sharpest edges I've ever made! I finished icing it, stepped back and was in awe.

Tips for smooth cakes:
1) have a good buttercream recipe and make sure it's smooth without air bubbles!
2) CRUMB COAT!
3) refrigerate or freeze and use a hot spatula to spread!
4) use your decoration to cover imperfections. This is my favorite thing to do because it's almost impossible to get a perfectly smooth cake!

Stay tuned for some big news!🎉

Never have I ever.... Been so challenged by a cake.

The customer asked if I could make a rainbow cake. Thinking nothing of it, I said yes. Then she sent her inspiration photos, and they looked just like this. All fondant, all pastels, all difficult.

I don't work much with fondant, and after spending hours delicately weaving the thin pieces together, I realized why. With that being said, I think it turned out beautiful and I gained a new skill I would have otherwise not learned.

I'll be adding a new section to my posts called

"Miranda's Tips and Tricks to all Things Baking"

So Tip #1 - Fondant!

Important things to remember when working with fondant:

⭐Keep your work area clean and change gloves between colors. Fondant picks up anything and everything around it: dust, colors, etc.

⭐ Tylose (CMC) Powder- this will allow your fondant to dry hard so your decorations can keep stiff.

⭐Take your time-fondant is hard to work with, be patient, and don't get discouraged!

It was a goal of mine to make a striped cake this year!

When a customer says, "chocolate cake, design is up to you," I knew what to do!" I pulled out the cake comb I bought a few days prior and went to work! It's definitely not perfect, but it was an accomplishment for me and the cake turned out great!

This style has forever been one of my favorite looks! Stripes and a long drip. I want to practice with more colors and get even more creative!
