How to apply fondant to a cake without cracks...

I live 5280 feet above sea level, very high altitude so I understand this problem. I make sure that my fondant isn't dry at all when I knead it before putting it on the cake. Mix in shortening and don't use too much powdered sugar when rolling it out. Cover the cake as quickly as possible and make sure your fondant isn't too thick or the weight of it will cause cracks. I put the fondant on right after my crumb coat because I find that the bc helps the fondant stick. Then chill the cake right after you apply the fondant. This will set the fondant in place so it doesn't move causing it to crack. Chill until time of delivery and you should be fine. Also, make sure your cake is sturdy enough to support the weight of the fondant. You can add an extra 1/4 C of flour to your cake mix.

A cake for a star's first birthday!

I love this cake, I tried to make something that hasn't been done before.

3-tiered wedding cake

This cake was inspired from a design chosen by the bride from mysweetandsaucy.com. I loved making this cake, it turned out so well. The gray buttercream added such a contemporary touch. The bottom tier was vanilla bean cake with buttercream. The middle tier was oreo cake with oreo chunk buttercream, and the top tier was vanilla bean with fresh banana Bavarian cream.

The bird house cake

I was very pleased with the way this cake turned out. It wasn't without it's challenges, though.

The beginning of my "frosted" dream...

I have always had cake on the brain. Since I was young, I used to love to go to the grocery store and watch the cake decorators while my parents shopped. I took cake decorating classes from the local craft store in high school and my love for cakes exploded. I went to college and graduated with a degree in Education and worked as a teacher and nanny for the past 5 years. I was decorating cakes on the side, and completed formal training while I was pregnant. After getting married to my wonderful husband and having my amazing son, I've realized that now is the time to make my dream a reality. So Frosted Dreams Bakery was born.
