Confessions of a Lady Baker, part 2




I present to you my Jeep Cake! I totally underestimated how long this creation would take me to finish. In my previous post I mentioned how my Cali friend recommended that I cut and fill the cake before calling it a night, but I was a baby about it and went to bed because I was exhausted. I thought 8 hours would be sufficient to finish the cake the next day. My Cali friend said, "you think so?" "Of course," I said confidently, though inside I was questioning myself.
The next morning I struggled to wake up like I usually do every day of my life. My self imposed deadline was for 5:30pm so that I could have enough time to shower and get all dolled up for the party. 6 o'clock rolled around and I was still not finished and this is when the most amazing person came to my aid...mi madre. She finished the roof and she put together the wheels for me! Sigh...I am so lucky to have such an awesome mother.
So lesson learned...definitely not going to procrastinate any cake orders anymore and I will listen to my Cali friend next time.
I am ready for my next challenge!!
