how to decorate a cake with fondant

I remember the way the cakes decorated sleeve few years ago ... Molds for fun shapes were rented to decorate then with small stars icing color. There were molds for all tastes, "Cookie Monster" in "Superman"! But the food trends, as decoration, evolve. And now the cake "IN" is decorated with fondant.

I watched for some time an artist in the field on facebook: MIMI CAKES. In fact, I even booked him a cake for the party of my daughter Lily-Rose. Then she announced that she would offer courses. What a joy! I waited a long time the event ...

When we arrived, the table is already full of products ... What happiness for a passionate like me!



Tens of equipment and products that I am looking forward to trying.




The beautiful Mimi ALL you need!

A cake waiting for us all, and Mimi tells us first icing the cake with butter cream, which then host the fondant.



Then we learn to make fondant home



Stuff Mimi are really well explained and the steps are clear. She then tells us to color the fondant.



It is shaped arms, because it takes long enough to knead the dough!



Colors based on the well, then roll it ... ready to expand on the cake!



And here! This step is the most complex to run, because it requires that the flux is covering the round cake without creases ... It is therefore necessary to stretch the dough ... but not too much! Otherwise, it rocks!



Then the excess size!



Mimi then tells us to make roses, calla lilies, carnations ... short ALL FULL beautiful things!



Here MA pink! She is successful, but I chose not to decorate my cake with roses (It's a bit too long to do!)



I finally made a cake to die (faster) I decorated for Easter! The cake can be frozen! I will therefore serve our Easter party!



I can not wait to do more! I think it will be expensive to store accessories decorations cake! (YES YES 'I know he is very busy! What do you want? I love it as well!)

If the course you are interested, you will find MIMI CAKES on facebook, but will have to be patient friends!

Need some advice! :)

I usually only average a cake a month...or every other month...due to the craziness of being a mom right now.  I have several coming up this year that I know of (mainly my own kids/family member's birthday cakes) and I wanted to get your feedback on some ideas of things you'd like to see me do tutorials of here on my blog!!!  This way, I can plan the designs of these cakes around things that you all really want to see!  I know a lot of you have taken my Craftsy class and are excited to keep learning new things from me and I'm so excited to keep sharing!  I just want to make sure the designs I come up with will benefit the most people and if I can squeeze certain techniques in here and there, I will!! :)SO, leave me a comment below and give me some advice about the following things:*Perhaps you've seen a design you just love but don't know how to pull off (leave me a link)*Perhaps you struggle with an aspect of cake construction, building or design that you'd love to improve upon but don't know how*Perhaps you have a party theme coming up that you don't know how to pull off in a cake design*Perhaps you'd like to have templates for certain things and you don't know how to create themWhatever it is...leave me a comment!  I'm not going to be able to get back to everyone, and I won't be able to answer all of these! - but perhaps there are a few common themes that I could help you all out with! :)  Plus, I'd love to see some links or pics or designs that you might want me to attempt this year!Thanks everyone!! :)  I'm so excited to see what the Lord will do this year and feel so blessed to have the opportunity to help those I can!
