My neighbor and good friend go out quite a lot. Somedays for walking, others for shopping and others just to have breakfast and coffee and some long girl talk. I believe that it keeps us sane to have good friends to talk to and share with.
She has a son that is recovering from a car accident he had a while back. He was in a comma for a long time and now is walking around and being more like himself as time goes by. His mom is very proud of him and so is his family!!!
I personally think he is a very strong guy and he's doing a great job getting himself out there into the world. Enjoying life once again!
He was about to turn 21 years old; and I wanted to surprise him with a cake. His mom gave me a can of Monster Energy Drink to replicate into a cake, since he likes them so much.
This is what I came up with:
Hope you are all feeling inspired by this cake!
I even had it open for him! hahaha... :)
Enjoy some Monster!
I love your cakes! My first foray into catering was as a baker and cake artist. It was fun until we put our house up for sale and I had to keep the kitchen clean. We had shiny black cabinets which always looked gray after making the icing! I look forward to meeting you in Orlando at the seminar.
ReplyDeleteThanks Sandy for the kind words. Looking forward to meeting you as well!
ReplyDeleteThat looks really nice...How tall was it? You did a good job making the fondant on the can really smooth,that's hard to do with a tall cake like that.
ReplyDeleteKara, you are right about that! The cake was around 8" tall and baked in 5" round pans. I loved making it, but it was a challenge for sure.
