 That's the cake i need to make in 2 weeks time.. Not with buttercream though. I have to do it in Fondant. ANy ideas how i can go about doing this? I can get the wilton pan but it seems not a lot of places do em cheapest i'v found on ebay is £11.75...If i can make it without pan There seems to me i need a 8" round cake and maybe 2 3" one for the nose and ears? I really am desperate, I need this to look extremly professinal as this will be the first of many others. The lady does kidies parties and is looking to do the same cake evrytime she doees a party. This will be really good for me so I am desperate for help!! MANY MANY THANKS>>> |

Hi Rach, No it's ok. I turned her down, coz did not wnat to limit myself to just those cakes. If i'd get a big order and i had so many cakes to do for her i'd be stuck plus she only wants to pay 13 pounds!!! I thought not worth it!! But thanks anyway.
