Sean and Alec both graduated from Seminary last Sunday. They are wearing their new Missionary suits that Uncle Carroll and Aunt Christine got for them. Last Saturday was a birthday party for Larry Sherwood. He turned 90 years old. Kathleen asked me to make a cake. It was one of the most fun cakes I have done. I took a pattern from
Alec's hat to make the brim out of fondant. The top was cake I carved except for the ridges at the top. I used Twinkies there. The spurs are out of gum paste. I made a pattern from a pair of old spurs we had. Then the rope is a roll of fondant. I needed to make enough cake for 80 people so I made the bottom cake to look like a corral with barbed wire fence. It was really exciting as it came together and the family really liked it.
