Baby Boys and Bowties

I found a cake on Pinterest. It was oh so beautiful! I pinned it for future use, but apparently the future is now! I made this little lovely for a bow tie/mustache baby shower! It was so so much fun! My 2 littlest angels ATE my first batch of fondant awesomeness! (I found half the mustache in the garbage later. They ate EVERYTHING else!) So this is actually my second batch! 

Ta da! 

With the decorations... (also inspired by Pinterest).
 
As a side note I will NEVER use Satin Ice fondant again! It was so hard to work with! When I first opened the container I sighed with contentment! It was so soft! I imagined it working as beautifully as it felt, but I was oh so wrong!! I've never had so much trouble covering a cake! What a nightmare! Now go back up and look at the close up of the cake. You'll see little cracks and wrinkles. Did you see it? Blech! Drives me crazy, but it was too late to go to the store and get some Wilton. Oh well! The search for the perfect fondant will continue. Maybe I'll use the rest of my Satin Ice for making bunnies. Do you want to make this cake? Check out this tutorial from Miso Bakes!
