Off to Temple!…the University

I cannot believe that our family friend Samantha is finally going off to college!! I’ve known her since she was 7! Boy, do I feel old; I wonder how that makes her parents feel…hahah For the chocolate lover at heart, I made devils food cake with chocolate-cool whip pudding filling. One of my staples, and a very delicious one at that! This was my first time molding Rice Krispie treats, which was kinda cool. Makes it a lot easier to make supportive figures and is better than wasting fondant. The stage and Sam were both made out of the yummy marshmallow treat and then covered with fondant and dusted with gold glitter. I also tried out a new technique called colorflow for the Temple University mascot. That’s one ugly mascot, but hey, what the customer wants, the customer gets! (within reason of course haha) Once the design is piped and filled in with color, it turns into a hard plaque with a puffed texture.  I’m stunned by how easy and how great it came out. Definitely a method that will be used again!
