I finished my mom's birthday cake last Tuesday! I actually did it on Tuesday because I couldn't wait to make it. And today is Friday! I can't wait to taste it tonight! The cake looks pretty nice, but I hoped for something a little different. I will tell you the difficulties I had with making the cake. But first, here's what it looks like now:
Difficulties:
So when I was putting on the chocolate frosting and trying to smooth it out, it started to harden kind of like really fast, so when I tried smoothing it out, it made it worse! So next time when I make another cake, I have to move fast. Plus, I didn't actually have a smoother because I usually use our bread cutter, but that works fine, so I was looking for it all over the kitchen, but finally, I found it, and I tried using it, but it was too late the frosting didn't want to smooth out! And also the cake is also leaning a bit after I put the flowers and all the decorations on it so I couldn't fix it, which is also bothering me very much. And I should have put more raspberry filling in the middle. I don't think I put much in there. That is all my difficulties. I think.
But I did have fun decorating and baking the cakes!
