I don't think i've sculpted anything more difficult. A piano is basically...a box... a big rectangular sharp edged box! I have to eventually come to terms with my personality and inability to create fine sharp, straight lines and edges. It drives me nuts...lines, sharp corners and rules alike! *laughs*
I had an exam on monday and one of wednesday...my cake order this week was in between all those stressful moments~ I really hope they'll be happy with what I've done. I'm just extremely picky and an absolutely painful perfectionist! *sigh* I always need things to turn out exactly the way I picture them too! :(All in all, I personally think everything but the piano looks alright. I'll be having my fingers crossed when she comes to collect it tonight! >.< *laughs* Sigh*...If i had more time...i would have pulled out the piano and covered it with a new layer of icing. It took me 3 days to dry the keyboard (Even tHEN! it still was slightly sagging in the center!) I hate gravity!!!!!! *stress* The girls thought it was beautiful...and that I would be crazy to pull it apart.
Oh well...the week has been unkind....but I'm taking a break for a week from cakes and all things "study". I'm off on a plane to Japan tomorrow morning!! *WeEeeEee~*excited* :P
I'll be having my exams real close to when I return...lots to cramming to do then....*sigh*... I shouldn't have second thoughts now...should just work real hard when I'm back huh? No baking for Su in awhile!... *tear*

Hi Su Yin,
Thanks for telling me what I need for the fondant..Is it difficult to make the fondant?I got a recipe out of the internet that said to use veg shortening, marshmellow and powder sugar and I tried it but it did NOT work for me. :(..Can you tell me the direction to make it as well I really appreciate it. Good luck in your exams too..thanks..

Hi Su Yin. Amanda told me about your blog. Fantastic! We do this for a living in KL and we've rarely seen better. Even from Sweet Art. ;-) Gosh! I hope no one from Sweet Art is reading this. ;-) In any case, keep up the good work and look us up when you're back in KL.

mel: Hmm...i usually buy mine; just out of lazy-ness :P haha..but ehre's a website to help you wit your recipe www.cakecentral.com
I am loving your blog! You have great talent. I started creating cutesy cakes a few years ago, but mine aren't quite as intricate as some of yours. I've also started creating artsy cookies. I find they more fun to create, since I am into instant gratification...the cookies don't take half as long as the cakes!
Keep up your wonderful work! Pam
