The same friend that request the Star Wars themed cake for her husband asked about another one for her son's birthday. I was really excited to try painting on fondant and wanted to give it a try for this cake.
I attempted a 3d painting of R2D2 and I really like the way it turned out. The only part of the cake that I was not pleased with was the icing covering the cake. I intended to have the cake covered completely in white fondant to have a smooth background, but I injured my elbow and couldn't even begin to roll out the fondant. The icing was last minute and was really quite
frustrating.![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhstwWi5YVs6TOf7gtBMtL9SwXXbUM922UvhQSrDEnoCC0TvEB0-uG-cc_CM4eWKdkBqKQ1WakSA-Ib41nsfj8O0oh8auWbp5bdqVSlcoJl9dYohAwGPEWAlbIO0Xwu97M4IUK6qPqhyphenhypheniE/s320/IMGP6334.JPG)
