First Communion Cake

I had another cake order!  Yipee!  I love making cakes, but since we’ve moved so much I’ve always worked just word of mouth.  Every once in a while getting an order from someone stumbling across my blog from a google search.  But now that we’re staying put here in UT I have a website (it will be up soon I promise!) and I’m going to start some real marketing!  I’m so excited.  Anyway…

This cake was for a first communion.  The grandmother ordered this cake from out of town.  I worked with the mother and daughter on the design.  They wanted 3D praying hands with a rosary.  They were pleased and I thought it turned out as well as it possibly could! Just don’t turn me into Cake Wrecks for having body parts on a cake!  We didn’t want the hands to be all Skin and veins ans stuff so we put them in white gloves.

I was pleased with how well the lace edging turned out.  I used molded chocolate and covered it in a thin layer of fondant.  The rosary is real.  I was going to make fondant, but the hands were so small and delicate I felt that I fondant/gumpaste rosary would take away from it.  So I went with a pearl and silver childs rosary to fit the small hands better.
