I was asked to make a special cake for a little girls baptism. She wanted a cross and snowflakes on it and said I could run with the rest of the design. I love these kind of cakes because I love creative freedom. I started with the snowflakes and then MANY tiny white dots of fondant swirls to make them look as if they were falling on the cake. I then used my new letter punch to write "God Bless in fondant. Why I didn't use frosting to do all the dots? Well butter is not white (why manufacturers feel the need to put yellow coloring in butter still baffles me) and would give the dots a yellowish tinge that would take away from the crisp whiteness of the snowflakes and cross. I decided on the purple background color because I just love the look of snowflakes on purple. Was a little nervous about the purple but they loved it!
