I love the 80's!
One of my bestest friends, Jennifer, turned 30 in August, and her sisters and friends decided to throw her a totally awesome 80's suprise birthday party. Not only was I excited to celebrate Jen, my mind was spinning with ideas for the desserts! I thought about this party for months and couldn't wait to get started.
This is the first time I've used fondant in such large quantities. I decided to try out Duff's line at Michael's and used a lot of his products. I have to admit, I loved most of them. Well, except the white fondant. Awful. When I opend the package, the fondant was liquid! I don't know if I got a bad batch or what, but I was definitely disappointed. I will stick with my homemade recipe for now. However, the black fondant was fantastic. Also, I used some of his cake tatoos. They were fun to use and worked well for the tie dye cake.
First, we have Michael Jackson gloves and neon RayBan sunglass sugar cookies.
Next, we have a Rubix Cube chocolate cake!
Miss Pacman chocolate cupcakes with vanilla frosting.
Simon vanilla cake.
The total package.
The cake for Jen to blow out her candles. Neon tie dye cake!
The inside of the cake..so much fun to make.
And finally, the fabulous Repetto sisters, all decked out in their 80's gear (Jennifer is on the right). Jen was completely surprised, despite my bad acting trying to get her there. And her sisters picked her the perfect outfit for her to change into once she arrived. Happy (belated) birthday, Jennifer! We love you!
