Baby Bassinet Cake





So, I co-hosted a double mom-to-be shower with 7 other women for work. This is the cake I made for the shower. It was fashioned after a cake made by Pauline Dugas of Pauline's Cake Shop (Breaux Bridge, LA) at the most recent Louisiana ICES Day of Sharing.

The cake was a lot of work, but it held together, none of the fondant fell and the rice crispie treats were as big a hit as the cake. What a fun cake to make!!
In the last picture, I placed a 12 cup coffee pot next to the cake for size reference. The headboard was 9.5 inches at the highest point and the sheet pan was a 9 X 13 inch cake.
***UPDATE***
A picture of my cake was featured in the Louisiana ICES Newsletter.
Even if it is such a small group, I am so excited to be published! :)
