Nothing Like a Robot Cake

What do you get after 8 hours, 6 different jars of frosting dye, 1 pkg of fondant, two hands perma dyed, arthritic old lady hands, 10+ trips back and forth from the fridge to harden frosting, blood (cut myself with serrated knife), sweat, and tears?
Mmm...Robot Cake


Not too shabby hey?


I took on this bad boy all by my lonesome this time so don't look too close at the star tipping job. I did not think it would take me as long as it did, but alas I finally finished the sucker at 3:00 in the am. I wish I could say that I went to bed after that, but the party prep required more of my attention party pictures to follow later.

So cool! Isn't there some kind of contest you could enter all of your party ideas into? This would win.

Um.....who has that much flippen' time on their hands?

Just wait until #3 comes along.....goodbye 8 hour cakes.

Knowing you that wont stop you. Good for your.

My kids are lucky if they get something more than a 9x13 cake with canned frosting and those yucky hard frosting decorations.

You never cease to amaze me with your creativeness.

You never stop do you! Oh to have time to be creative again... I would so love that. But somehow you seem to always amaze me (and everyone else) You are too amazing!

As always...magnificent! Maybe next time you'll have to borrow Spencer's brace for your arthritic hands...that might help! Oh, and maybe not having LAVA hot hands and a ginormous cake to make!
