Vintage Dude



Made a cake for a special 50 year old Vintage Dude...  I found the design on a website that sells 50 proof birthday paraphernalia.   I used my CopyKake to help me recreate the design on a fondant circle.  Writing on cakes and fondant is tough for me.  I used Royal Icing for the design, which is also my arch nemisis.  I can't seem to perfect the consistency I need...  I will keep working at it...
Here are some more pics of the finished cake:

I used my copykake projector. Picture are below.  Enjoy!

Cakes are cooling for the flag cake.  This is the batter for the cupcakes...

How did I make this boy scout logo? With my CopyKake...  This projector allows me to pipe designs I wouldn't be able to do easily freehand.
