Happy New Year!
I thought that we could start the new year off with a big three tiered cake. This design is a sort of geometric/abstract mix. It is covered in fondant and all the shapes are also fondant. It is actually pretty easy to do, but a little time consuming. It is much easier to do with two people, one cutting out and the other placing on the cake. One thing that you have to be careful of is cutting out too many shapes and then they dry out before they are on the cake. A little helpful hit is to cover the cutout pieces with plastic, although it is still not good to get too ahead of yourself.
