Bachelorette Party Cake

So we had Julie's Bachelorette party this week. We went to dinner, had (virgin) margaritas, and I made this cake.


We partied it up as only mothers who have to be up early to get their kids ready for school in the morning could. Yee Haw ride that saddle Julie.

I asked julie what her favorite cake was and she said the cake doesn't matter as long as it has funfetti frosting. And lots of it. The cake is funfetti with 2 tubs of funfetti frosting. Funfetti frosting is lumpy because of all the candy bits and it left the fondant on top of the bed a little lumpy. I could have smoothed it out a little more, but I liked the way it made it look more bed like.

It came together fairly quickly with the exception of the (frustrating) hollow chocolate nightstand. That took 2 hours alone. I think the everything else combined took me about 2 hours.

I covered the cake board in fondant then textured it with a piece of rough sandpaper thinking it would look more like carpet. It actually looked a lot like tile when I was done with it.

  2. That is hilarious and disgusting at the same time... ;) Perfect for Julie...ha ha ha! The question is...do his eyes follow you no matter where you're standing? I'm glad to see our little Wisconsin man could make an awesome contribution to the party.
