Fondant Cakes

Image
I've had a lot of people request a written recipe for the fondant cake I vlogged about on YouTube, so here it is! Also, my God-daughter came over that night to help me decorate a few more cakes, so here are a few picture of a few cakes we decorated together that night. The other picture is of a cake I recently made for a dinner party. I'm no "Cake Boss", but I really do enjoy making these cakes! Fondant Icing Cake’s Ingredients: 1 1/2 cups of butter 2 1/2 cups of granulated sugar 3 cups of all-purpose flour 1 cup of milk 5 eggs 1 teaspoon Almonds Extract (I’m using the almonds extract but you can easily replace it with pure vanilla extract or any other flavor you like) 3/4 teaspoon of baking powder 1/4 teaspoon of salt Remember, this is NOT a light and fluffy cake, by any means. It's a denser cake. If you're going to make a big cake, this is definitely the recipe to use because the weight of the fondant might weigh a lighter cake down too
