Cake Baking

This is the funniest and most delicious cake I've ever baked. My brother, my sister, and I have our birthday's on the same month. My other sister missed March by one day. We decided that for our birthday's we each would bake a cake and make a cake competition out of the occasion.

We thought it would be fun and different; it turned out to be that and more.






My brother baked a cake in the form of Puerto Rico with the flag on top. It had coquies, tropical fish, and a sea made of coconut. My sister went all out and made a cake in the form of an amusement park with a carousel, tigers, and so on.

My cake turned out to be a mess. I tried using fondant but the temperature in my kitchen dissolved the sugar and rendered it unusable. So there I was with a chocolate cake without frosting and I had spent all the money I had on tips and other cake stuff. I went to the store with five dollars and bought rice crispies which I glued to the sides of my cake and then I painted on it.

To say that we laughed that day is an understatement. My sides and stomach hurt of so much laughing. I am now honing my cake baking skills getting ready for next year. So far no much progress to report.
