Payton turned three this year! His latest obsession was Monster's Inc., so that is the theme we chose for the party.
For the cake we wanted to make a really cool one with Mike Wazowski on it (because he is Payton's favorite).
After watching the Ace of Cakes show, we figured it would be easiest if we used some sort of fondant to cover it.
So we baked the cakes and frosted them with cream cheese frosting (buttercream didn't sound too appealing to Megan).
Next Marcus made a white marshmallow fondant (with a recipe Megan found online) and we covered it with white,
then he continued to make a green so we could make Mike.We rolled it out and cut out the piece to make his body, arms and legs,
then did a little details with just some black frosting.Overall the cake looked pretty cool, but we learned that working with fondant for the first time is not the easiest thing.
