My First Cake!

I made my first cake! (with the guidance of mycakeschool.com) I decided to make a pumpkin spice cake because pumpkin is my favorite flavor!

It took me three days to make this cake... but keep in mind I'm a full time student and work part time! It didn't come out exactly how I had envisioned, but it was DELICIOUS! I learned a lot and I'm excited for the next one. ( : I found a recipe on allrecipes.com for marshmallow fondant so I think that will be my next project.

With my left over cake batter I was also able to make a few cupcakes. I piped chocolate onto a cute rosette template I found on marthastewartweddings.com and made a little topper! Super cute!

ps. Here's the Martha rose cake: (I'll get to this level one day!)
