New York, New York...

I have been wanting to write my first article for a while now but i did not know where or how to start.

So, what better opportunity than to start with the cake I made last week: my husband & I, first year wedding anniversary Cake.

The theme: New York

(we had the chance to go to New York for our honeymoon and we had the most amazing time!)

A little explanation:

 The bottom tier: Manahattan

For the record: there are over 750 little sugar squares for the windows, on the first nine buildings only.

  

  The second tier: The NFL (American Football)

Only few hours after arriving in New York, we went to see the last game of the pre-season.

 

  The third tier: The Tavern On The Green

The Tavern On The Green is a restaurant in Central Park: we had an amazing evening there.

As you can see, this cake is far from perfect: i have no experience or training in cake decorating & design, therefore, I am still in the learning process.

One thing that I have clearly not mastered yet: the fondant and covering a cake with the fondant.

Making fondant is quite a difficult thing to accomplish...and, for some reason, when the fondant does turn out ok, I am not able to get a nice, flat finish on the cake.

Only one solution: Practise, practise, practise...
