What you didn't see - building the cake

Wow, what a challenge the building of the cake was. All the baking was done by Jen. She solely bakes from cake mixes. Now there is nothing wrong with cake mix; however, when it comes to carving, building and creating a tall cake, you need a solid foundation. When planning the cake, I suggested and advised that she bake scratch pound cake to have a sturdy foundation. However, she had never baked from scratch and does not bake from scratch. I then suggested that she needed to create a box mix into a pound mix (more eggs) to provide the needed structure.

Finally, the TLC Fabulous Cakes show airs, and the cake is revealed!

Thank you's are in order for sure! There are so many behind the scenes and support from others that made that cake happen. It certainly was not the work of one person. It was a huge collaberative effort, and during taping, there were issues that we had to work through as a team. Of course, with 3 days of filming, you only saw a scattered 15 minutes. Yes, the TLC episode highlighted Jen Drury, local decorator and owner of No More Boring Cakes.
