Did you make the fondant yourself?
that is so awesome, i am totally and utterly impressed! you are so talented!
Thanks Tia! You're so kind!
No, I did not make the fondant myself this time; it's chocolate fondant and tastes way better than the normal sugar stuffs.
WOW!! truly impressive!! my brain was busy calculating the time spent on this while going through the photos!! i guess it doesn't matter how much time was spent on this when the result is FANTABULOUS!! well done, Jen!!
Wow, that's totally amazing! Super impressive :) Ha, I'm still working on getting regular frosting to look ok but this is totally inspiring.
Wow, it looks just perfect! Outstanding job!
This is so intricate! I love it! great job!!
So cool!
Wow! Brillian!! Im just in awe! Congrats for making on the top 9!! Nice job!!
amazing
OMG - I love it! Make me one for my birthday!!
Omg, that is truly awesome--what a fun project that must have been. Hard to believe that cake was for a 6-yr. old.
How long did it take you from start to finish? The red velvet cake was a nice touch. I see Food Network cake competitions in your future :>).
Congrats on making FB top 9!!!
Your cake is fantastic! The details on the icons are amazing.
I guess I'm an old fuddy-duddy but what is a six old doing with an I-Pod??
Thanks Everyone for your so, so kind comments!
The cake was for a friend's 6-year old son who just got an iPod Touch from his parents as a birthday gift. The boy's already a computer wiz! I was still playing with Play-doh at that age! And I still do - I guess making this cake with detailed fondant icons is similar to handling Play-dohs?
I worked on the icons couple hours here and there the day before; the cake took about an hour to make and bake, the assembly took another couple hours, so I figured a good 6-7 hours in total? Had so much fun that I wasn't really keeping track.
Again, thanks for visiting and leaving a feedback. I truly appreciate it!
Wonderful!
awesome job! my son wants one for his 14th b'day next month. u would not believe what bakeries want for this design. I was thinking about buying a 1/4 sheet, but after the shaping is done I would probably end up w/ a smaller cake. so maybe the 1/2 sheet. my question is what size cake did you begin with? again, good job.
Hello, you did an awesome job, may I ask what the dimentions of the cake are?
