Mini Clutch Purse Cake-let

I made this for a friend who loves purses.  Tiny, 4" wide x 2" deep x 4" tall.  I baked one 6" round cake (2" high), cut it in half then stacked the 2 halves together to get a 4" tall, 1/2 circle.

I then carved the shape of the purse out.  The filling was fresh strawberries with strawberry Italian Meringue Buttercream (IMBC).

I then covered the whole cake with IMBC and put it in the fridge for an hour to firm up.


Covered the cake with marshmallow fondant and added the little details and decorations.  This was completly inspired from http://www.cupcakeenvy.com/ where she has a youtube video tutorial posted.  So cute and so fun to make!

  3. I haven't had any problems with the condensation melting the MMF - it dries right up within a few hours and looks perfectly fine.
