I agreed to make her a cake but she would have to accept what I had in the freezer. I had done a huge amount of baking the day before and had put the extra layers into the freezer for later. This was my later, apparently. He agreed, mostly because he knew it would be good.
Then I got a text..."Mom, she loves fondant and Winnie the Pooh. Hint, hint." What? Now I'm taking a specific order? Huh? I mean, how good does this child think I am?! So, I took myself to task. What could I do that would be quick, easy and involve fondant and Winnie the Pooh.
I should add that all the while, my husband is in the background shaking his head and telling me not to agree to this. But, as a mom and baker, I just could not help myself. I have a sickness. I NEED cake decorator's anonymous. I seriously do.
Instead, I cut my layers, made a batch of vanilla buttercream and got to work. It was actually done, start to finish in about 3 hours, so not bad at all.
Here is the finished product. (I know, I have got to start taking more pictures!)
