The Rice Krispie keeps the shape pretty well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-into-cake-decorating#post-1307757 Mon, 30 Dec 2013 11:43:27 +0000 T-Mom 1307757@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: oh that would be so cute! I bet it wouldn't be that hard.. I thought this one looked very doable, and even though it's not perfect it is very obviously Pete? <a href="http://www.oneluckypickle.com/2012/06/party-chronicles-episode-3-pete-cat.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.oneluckypickle.com/2012/06/party-chronicles-episode-3-pete-cat.html</a></p> <p>I understand losing motivation and ordering a cake, though. That's what happened with me and my DS this year after I spent a lot of time on my DD's cake! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-into-cake-decorating#post-1307733 Mon, 30 Dec 2013 11:35:03 +0000 autumnlove 1307733@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@T-Mom: Pete the Cat! I think I'm losing motivation and I might just order a cake! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-into-cake-decorating#post-1307224 Mon, 30 Dec 2013 08:33:15 +0000 T-Mom 1307224@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The most I have done is roll balls and cut shapes out of my fondant, but I found it fairly easy to work with (store bought fondant)! Good luck! What are you going to sculpt? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-into-cake-decorating#post-1307039 Mon, 30 Dec 2013 01:09:18 +0000 MaisyMay 1307039@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: Play-doh might work. I picked up some harder clay from Jo-Ann's for about $1.50. The fondant that I bought was a lot stiffer than play-doh. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-into-cake-decorating#post-1307032 Mon, 30 Dec 2013 01:04:59 +0000 autumnlove 1307032@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MaisyMay: Oooh, maybe I will practice on play-doh? :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-into-cake-decorating#post-1307026 Mon, 30 Dec 2013 01:00:10 +0000 MaisyMay 1307026@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Espion: Modeling clay is super cheap and I figured that if I could craft a dino out of modeling clay, then fondant would be fine. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-into-cake-decorating#post-1307020 Mon, 30 Dec 2013 00:54:15 +0000 Espion 1307020@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MaisyMay: That's a great idea! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-into-cake-decorating#post-1307016 Mon, 30 Dec 2013 00:47:52 +0000 MaisyMay 1307016@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I made a fondant dinosaur. To practice, I bought a cheap thing of modeling clay and practiced with that. For the actual dino, I bought a small tub of fondant at Walmart and heated it up just a little, to make it pliable, before having my fun with it. Good luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-into-cake-decorating#post-1306954 Sun, 29 Dec 2013 23:47:38 +0000 HLK208 1306954@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I made one fondant cake which was fun...but I like the taste of the cakes from my go-to baker way more. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-into-cake-decorating#post-1306951 Sun, 29 Dec 2013 23:46:14 +0000 LovelyPlum 1306951@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wish!

I have a few days to practice... </p>
