So all went well, I didn't dump the cake on the ground, I still want to make cakes, and I think it turned out pretty good for this being my first cake this size. We did have issues with the top layer, and I think if I don't see Carrot cake again for a while, it will be just fine. Between not having a 4 inch square cake pan (and not being able to find one at all in the Des Moines area) we had difficult time getting the cake crumb coated and ready to be covered in fondant. After getting some advice from a chef that the bride knew, we took one last try at it, and what do ya know... it worked!!! I guess the third time making that layer was the charm... good thing it was the top layer! Thank you for your advice Levi! And thank you to everyone who tried like hell to find me a cake pan!
And a HUGE thank you to my sister, Mollie, who not only helped me make all the cakes and get it put together, but for staying up with me and making me laugh until 5 AM the day of the wedding, helping me wrangle kids, and keeping me sane during this process. I love you girl!
And last but not least, Congratulations to Kelsey and Niki, I love ya both, and I hope that this cake was everything you hoped for!
