Okay, a friend celebrated her 30th birthday this August. One of her wishes for her birthday was for a tweety bird cake. So her wish I granted. :)
Before I started working on the gumpaste figure, I have a clear picture in my head on how I will make it. But of course, not everything we think is pretty simple will always be that easy to make. In short, I had to redo Tweety Bird's head several times. I couldn't quite get the shape of the head and also the beak. But with a lot more of patience and a little critic from my hubby I was able to pull it together to my satisfaction. Yahoo!
The cake was strawberry flavored filled with cream cheese/mascarpone frosting then crumbcoated with vanilla buttercream. As always, covered and decorated with marshmallow fondant.
