I have been asked by a good friend if I would make her wedding cake in May. Since most wedding cakes are made with fondant(the really smooth icing) I decided I should learn how to use it. Turns out she wants a buttercream wedding cake, but it was fun learning to do fondant anyway. Here are a few of my first cakes.
This First one I made was for a girl in my ward who just had a baby girl. Her name is June and she is so adorable with a lot of dark hair.
This one was a bit more challanging. I think I need to get used to the fondant before I try one this challanging again. I thought I had enough fondant, then I didn't, and the fondant ripped at the corners. It was frustrating, but you get the idea of what I wanted the cake to look like right?
This one was a lot of fun. I make it for Easter. It worked out well, except the chicken legs would not stay up by themselves, so I had to prop them up with tooth picks. I still think it turned out pretty cute!

Megan, your cakes look awesome. Do you ever watch Ace of Cakes on the Food Network? It is one of my favorites - Thursday nights. You can get a lot of great ideas. Can't wait to see the wedding cake.
