And so it begins...



So.


My sister is getting married this year. Springtime. May. 9th. (I think) She's trying to have the most amazing wedding possible, but on a budget, nothing wrong with that. She asked me if I thought I could handle making the wedding cake, and while this idea is highly intimidating, I have to admit I was kind of digging the idea. I, like every specimen of the female persuasion (whether you admit it or not!), have always dreamed of making beautiful edibles covered in perfect fondant and decorations. After some research I discovered something that I hoped would work for all of us.



HAHAHA!

I kid, I kid.

But seriously, I did find this picture, and many others like it:
Gorgeous, right? (And for the sake of NOT getting in trouble, this is NOT! my image, I merely 'borrowed' it.)
So after much discussion and planning it was decided, I would make a wedding cupcake cake. Immediately my creative juices started flowing and I was brimming with ideas. I thought it would be fun to create a blog to document my experiences as I go along, the trials. The tribulation. The massive screw ups. (Cause you know there will be many!) Anyways, we've gone out shopping this past sunday and I have much in the way of baking 'booty' in my posession.
....Now the real fun begins.....
