Pastiallge Cake Stand!
Project: Create an ALL EDIBLE cake stand made with pastiallge (similar to altoids or necco waffers) along with 4 small boxes.
Theme: Initials. Anything that has to do with your initials (like if my first initial was D I could make 4 dogs holding up a cake...)
Cake: Orange Sponge cake filled with a lime curd, crumb coated with buttercream, and covered with fondant
My Theme: Costume History Design (18th century...French hats)
Idea: Dress form holding up a large hat holding the cake with sugar flowers and feathers
Here's just the cake stand with the brim of the hat... I don't have the picture with the cake and flowers attached yet, but I should get them soon. Here's a preview anyway cause I'm excited.

CHOCOLATE!
We've been working with ONLY chocolate this past week. Today we had to make our own chocolate candy stands!
Tempering chocolate sucks, but playing with it is fun.
Heres my piece
