Serenity Day 1

Didn't get as much done today as I'd hoped, so tomorrow is do or die. I was able to carve the styrofoam parts and glue them on, but my attempts to cover the engines in rice crispy treats ultimately failed, so I've got some modling chocolate setting up for a different take on it. Baked the cakes and they're ready for carving tomorrow.

FINALLY

It's finished! After having to haggle with the guys at Tap Plastics, a detour in Yosemite, and lots of glue setting, the base for Serenity is done! Now I just sit and wait around till two days before it's due date, Aug. 7th...dum dee dum dee dum

Shiny!

Finally some progress! While to anyone reading this, it looks like I've got the patterns for the Serenity cake frame done in no time; in reality I've wanted to have this done for about three months now so I could do some practice runs before the due date(still next month *phew*). Hopefully I'll have the full frame done today, courtesy of Tap Plastics (and my dad), and will post pics later.

Hello Internet Goers

Welcome to my brand new blog! If you choose to follow it, you will be following my adventures in pastry, art, and ultimately (hopefully) making a name for myself in the world of cake. I may stray drastically off topic at times, but who knows what the future holds. I will be posting pictures of my latest or on-going projects, the last of which was my first carved cake, and the next of which will be my second spaceship cake, Serenity.
