Use your favorite cake flavor and filling to make this fun, fondant covered Father's Day themed cake. Use his favorite colors for the shirt color and replicate his favorite tie. My advice for this one is just to watch those tricky corners (and extra padding of buttercream on the edges will make it easier), and don't get icing on your dad's work shirts. Some of those things are expensive!
Pops may not rock a pocket square, but it's always fun and if your tie isn't very loud, it'll add some interest to an otherwise simple cake.
Black isn't always an easy color to get, so try using slightly cooled ganache for any dark accents.
A bottom border is an easy way to hide any flaws in your fondant and to give your cake a finished look.
Have fun with the details! Buttons, borders, and tags are a great way to make your cake special.
Now Try This:
- Have a problem with your fondant getting dry and cracking? Instead of rolling your fondant out with powdered sugar or corn starch, try using a very, very thin layer of shortening instead.
- Spray your finger tips with cooking spray and rub your corners and edges lightly to stop those fine cracks in their tracks!
