Colorful Creation - Part 2

 Thanks for your patience:) Here is part 2 of my colorful, monkey cake! Unfortunately I didn't take any pictures of the actual decorating of the cake since, well, it was a messy nightmare! I decided to use fondant for the first time and made it myself. Wilton said making your own fondant was "moderately easy". Bull-crap. What a messy pain in the but that was! It turned out alright I guess but I'm not sure me & fondant will be BFFs.

So, here's the final product!

and here's the big, giant mess I made.

Last minute I decided to make up some cupcakes - the Angler came up with the Runtz topping idea, clever feller:)

 aaaaannnnd....it was a huge hit! All the kiddos love seeing George and I was so pleased with how the middle came out when we cut on into it:)

 The Bird approved.

 the cupcakes had a surprise middle too:)

Anyway, that's that! It was fun to create AND eat:)
