Here is another batch of felt cakes I made during the last 2 weeks. I remade a couple of them as I wasn't satisfied with the first results.
First time making a whole felt cake. I have to practise with the icing though.
I just bought this Wilton Wonder Mold. For the past few weeks, DD had been watching on Youtube on some doll cakes making using this mold. I can bake but I am not a professional cake decorator. I know there are a lot of accessories (different type of tips to be used on the dress) involved and they look quite intimidating. DH told me that he will help out with the decorations and told me to go ahead and buy the kit. DH came with an idea to save some work but not money. He suggested buying a barbie doll dress, cut it to the waist length and put it over this doll pick. In this way, we don't have to decorate top body with icing, marzipan, etc. What do you think? We will try making a Barbie doll cake this Sunday together with DD. If you want to look at the most beautiful Barbie doll cakes, go here. That is the site which DD and I frequent a lot and try to look for The Island Princess cake, that one is stunning!





I had been reading quite a lot during the evenings too. Recently I am into reading about child abuse books. I finished Sold by Tess Stevens last week and started Shy Keenan Broken. They are not lying when it is written 'The Most shocking story of abuse ever told' on the cover of Broken. The abuse that this young girl Shy had gone through since she was 4 was horrifying!!! Each time I finished a page and had to turn to a new one, I kept on telling myself 'please, let the abuse stops at the next page.'
