Royal Icing Transfer...

After failed attempts at frozen buttercream transfers, I wondered if there was anything else I could use to make a transfer out of.

My son wanted a silhouette of a deer on his birthday cake so I did some research and found that you can use Royal Icing for transfers.

So, I mixed up a batch...and thankfully, this was a good batch!
Filled my pattern...
And VOILA!
It came off without a hitch!
I was ECSTATIC!

My first ever frozen buttercream transfer...

My first ever frozen buttercream transfer was a Detroit Lion for a cake I was making for my husband.
I studied and read and asked for all kinds of advice from my baking friend.
Well, I did what everything and everyone said...
And I thought it turned out pretty darn good!
Until...

I went to peel if off the paper...
And it stuck...
And cracked...
And was a big, huge mess.
I cried.
I really did.
It started out so nice.
And then catastrophe.
But live and learn.
And then start over!
