Girl Christening cake

Ok, so the cake looks fine, but let me tell you all about the wonderful powder colors that I bought recently. These colors/pigments are everything but fine!!!!!
Oh my GOD!!!!!!!  such a nightmare! 
At this cake I wanted to cover the whole cake in pink. So I added a bit of red powdered color to my white sugar paste. I mixed the sugar paste with my hands for more than one hour!!!!!!!!! and my paste was still not homogeneous. 
In the end I used it as such. All the pink was full, full of tiny little red spots/particles!!!!! All over the cake.
I was so mad... I covered most of them with the white and brown dots but you can still see plenty of them on the cake. 
So one hour extra due to this wonderful powdered color and the cake far from being flawless.
I am never going to use it again with fondant. it works fine for butter cream, but that's it!
I love making these little cuties:) there are two red points even on my white part of the shoe. 
How they got there... I do not know.

  2. Buna Giovana ! Foarte frumos tortul ! Sa stii ca aseara si eu am patit acelasi lucru ca tine cu pulberea rosie. Doar ca eu am folosit la niste floricele mai mici si...nu prea s-a observat chiar asa rau.Tu ce crezi ? Sa dizolvam de la inceput in siropul de zahar ?
    Te pup !

  3. Arată bine, chiar si punctulețele :) ... nu prea sunt bune prafurile daca nu sunt dizolvate... Dar e ok. Ce matrița ai pentru suzetă? Unde ai găsit-o?
