Oh, and he's a HUGE Ovechkin fan, hence the number "8" jersey.
I have learned a lot about fondant lately. Number one thing I've learned? It isn't just me who doesn't like the craft store brand of fondant. It really is gross. I have started using a brand that, while popular amongst professional bakers, is not easy to use. The trick? Number two thing I've learned is to use cornstarch to stiffen it up a bit, otherwise it is pretty sticky. Both the flavor and texture are much more appealing. I cannot stress that enough.
Notes: milk chocolate cake with milk chocolate buttercream.
