My mom has been making beautiful cakes for 40 years. She says this is her last cake - she is almost 80. She keeps saying that and then does one more. She was doing all of the super cake stuff WAY before Martha Stewart and all of the cake shows on TV. In fact, she could show all of them a thing or two. I helped make a few of the fondant pieces just for fun, but she didn't even mention working on this - she drove it 2 hours to my house for the wedding and then proceeded to put all of the bouquets together (in some sort of flash, record speed unknown to common man).
I am going to pick up acorns with her today - I am thinking we will work on some crafty thing to do with them which is of course my tease for the next post!
It was super cute, but also very delicious. Some did not understand that it was a Hobbit Hole from Lord of the Rings, but those who did, stood in awe - haha!!
