I have a few friends who like for me to make their birthday cakes for their birthdays or their kids. I have a method of making cakes at the last minute that I think could prove useful to anyone really. Now before I tell you don't get me wrong.....I love a good homemade, made from scratch cake BUT there is not always time for that so here is my solution.
When in a pinch I purchase a white cake with plain white icing from the bakery at my grocery store......eeeek my secret is out! Then I make a batch of marshmallow fondant (which I will put the recipe up soon) and put a lot of love into the decorating of a cake! Most of the time the cakes that I get asked to make are at the last second so our only option would have been to go the grocery store and pick one up anyway. This is a fun and easy solution! I did it recently for a friend so I thought I would share some pictures to help you see that it can be pretty and easy!
Hope you all find this "procrastinator" method easy and helpful! - Johnna
