Casino Cake
This weekend I was commissioned to do a casino-themed cake. It will be a tiered cake so the idea of creating a slot machine or poker table is out. This will be in round tiers, probably about three to give the "height" impression. The colors should be black. red, white, I guess the more casino-y colors. Then I have to incorporate the request of having poker chips and cards to the cake. Of course, what is a casino without poker chips and cards! So there - I have the picture of the cake in my mind. Early this week I was making the fondant and the figures - it is better to do them early on to have enough time for them to harden and keep its shape. I worked on the poker chips, the cards and dice. Yes, DICE! cute!
