Christmas Fondant Cake!

[mylittleangelpillow]

its a beautiful cake, Laura! But you know how you said they could just yank a star off and put it in their mouth and have it taste good? What if they wanted to take a snowman or an ornament off and eat it?

[laurapoopie]

That would be fine too. :) The snowmen and ornaments probably wouldn't taste as good but they are still definitely edible. :)

Thanks Danielle! Yes, I was sick.... :( I had just regained my voice that morning! LOL! I'm SO happy you liked it! :) I hope you're doing wonderful out there in Australia!

[laurapoopie]

Hi Ruby! Thank you so much! I'm so happy you enjoyed this cake! It was a lot of fun to make! The snowmen were my favorite! :) The little arms were just broken toothpicks and I messed up the ends with little scissors to make it look like little tree branches of some sort. :) Yes, I was so happy for the little boy! He is ADORABLE! His name is Miguelito! :)

[dawniescakes]

Laura, me encantó tu pastel, pero sobre todo los pinos navideños.. como los hiciste? Estoy haciendo un pastel navideño y pensaba hacer los pinos con royal icing, pero me gustaron los que hiciste con gumpaste. Gracias por compartir tus pasteles!! Liliana

[laurapoopie]

Gracias Liliana! Que bueno que te gusto. Mira para hacer los arbolitos nomas formas un cono con el gumpaste, luego usando unas tijeritas chiquitas como los que encuentras para hacer los 'manicures', le cortas pedasitos iluego los levantas un poco. Es SUPER simple! Me gustaria ver du pastel cuando lo termines! :)

[lily13526]

Gracias Laura!! Ya te entendí como.. lo voy a intentar.. te enviare foto cuando lo termine :)

Que tengas buen dia!

You're welcome sweetheart! Thank you for watching it! :)

[kioko8232]

very cute cake like always!!! i love the snowmans :)

[laurapoopie]

Thank you! Glad you liked them! I thought they were cute as well! :)

[MessinaAM]

Another amazing cake! What are the snowman's hands made of? And do you attach everything with Tylose or royal icing? And, what do you mean that you made the trees with scissors? How? They are great! The whole cake is amazing! Keep inspiring...

[laurapoopie]

Thank you so much sweetie! The little snowmen arms were little toothpicks I broke off and then got some tiny scissors and messed up the ends to look like little branches. :) I attached the figures with royal icing. The ones on the 2nd tier had toothpicks in them to help them stay in place. Yes, I made the trees into cones and then just got little tiny scissors and cut into the tree. I've been told that Aine2 here on YouTube has a tutorial. I learned from watching Duff on Ace of Cakes! :)

[volovan81]

[laurapoopie]

Muchas gracias! Me da mucho gusto que te gusto esta creacion! :) Vas a ver que te vas a divertir muchisimo con el fondant. Aqui estoy para servir por si tienes preguntas ok? Te mando saludos y abrazos! :)

[nivia91]

Laura que puedo decir mas. Es ue cada dia me sorprendes mas y mas. I love this cake so much and you shouldnt be surprised about the amount of tickets sold. You are a star young lady and you deserve it :)

I have to say that I am always waiting for the weekends so I can see one of your cake hehehe!

By the way, before you cover your cake with fondant, you should let it rest for about 12 hours after filling it, then torte the excess coming from the sides.

[laurapoopie]

Gracias Nivia! Yes, you are right! I wish I would've had 12 hours to wait though... This cake was made in a mad rush! Total work time: 17 hrs.! I couldn't believe I got it done! LOL! :) Glad you liked it! ;)

[safabaig94]

omg how awesumm is that!cuteeee snowman..but whers snowman's hat?=p..awesome work awesome cake=]

[laurapoopie]

Thank you! :)

[prairiebutterfly]

Oh my gosh! Super cute... everything! I really like the little ornaments. I can't believe that you can make cakes like that and teach!! I guess if you love what you're doing it's motivation to do it! (even though it sounds like you don't get much sleep, LOL)

[laurapoopie]

Haha! You're right about that! Not much sleep but I can't imagine NOT doing this you know? It's my artistic release! And if I don't release my creativity often, I feel like I'm gonna explode! At work I draw pictures of cakes! LOL! Is that pathetic or what!? Haha! So glad you liked it sweetie! :)

[flourpowersweetsRus]

The little ornaments are my favorite too!! Aren't they just adorable!! Good job as always laura!

[TCAKESBAKERY]

I love love love this! I'm going to "borrow" your ideas =) TOO CUTE! And I love how you included the little boy in the video..that was so sweet. =)

[laurapoopie]

Thank you! He is such an adorable sweet boy! I HAD to include him! :) I'm so happy you liked this cake! :) Borrow! Borrow all you want girlfriend! :)

AMIGA - we must have been doing our cakes around the same time ! see... we're not really that far from each other, we do stuff at the same time ! I miss you amiga :) This cake must have made all their jaws drop ! I am thrilled with the snowmen too -- and the christmas decorations are awesome ! the tree does resemble Aine's - they're both spectacular !!!!

[laurapoopie]

Thank you amiga! Yes! We were both on the same wavelength! Ha! Great minds think alike! :) I miss you too amiga! I will write to you soon! :)

[darkroge]

omg you can use the little ball balls to put on to your christmas tree cute :)

[heather191990]

omg laura i love all your little guys =]

i think i like the snowman with two balls vs three =] (some creative criticism because although the guys with 3 are cute the ones with two are WAY cuter!!)

you did a beautiful job with this cake. I am impressed =]

did you learn the trees from aine2 ;]

the ornaments are adorable!! maybe try more colors next time? but i liked the simplicity of the colors on this cake! everything is greatly balanced!!

just love your cake!! =]

[laurapoopie]

Yeah they are way cuter aren't they? When I was looking at them I was like, "OMG, freakin' ADOrABLE!!!" LOL! Glad you liked my cake! :) No, I didn't learn how to make the little trees from Aine. I saw Duff on TV making them about a year ago. :)

[1colie1994]

Great job!! Thanks for sharing!

[laurapoopie]

Thank you so much and THANK YOU for watching! Glad you liked it! :)

[drbennettdc]

That turned out absolutely adorable! Keep up the fabulous work. I so look forward to your videos.

[laurapoopie]

Thank you so very much! Thank you for taking the time to watch my videos and for the support! It really means a lot to me! :) Glad you liked it! :)

[PurthePoohBear]

wow its such a huge cake. I wish I were the luck one. I totally agree to the fact of promoting fondant as u said they are edible. Love the ornaments, they look so funny and real. It must be so worth ur nightout to just see the smile on that little boy's face. He is one lucky guy. And you are one proud baker. I am sure at the ruffle everyone was all "oohh" and "aahh" abt the cake. Thats when u feel all ur tiredness and backaches caused due to hard labor is fading away.

[laurapoopie]

Thank You Purbasha! Yes, you are right! It was all worth it! What's so great is that the little boy's mom is a teacher friend of mine so now WE'RE ALL gonna get a piece of cake! Wooo Hoooo! LOL! Yes, everyone loved it! It made me so happy to get the great feedback from all my friends and students. A lot of people didn't know that I made cakes and they were very surprised! :)
