Christmas Cake

Hope that everybody has a wonderful Christmas weekend so far. I made this Christmas cake for family. White chocolate cake with cranberry filling (cook down cranberry with brown sugar, clove and cinnamon). Frosting is white chocolate vanilla frosting.

Also made some cute bears as cake tops with marzipan. They are the size of a ketchup bottle cap as you can see in the picture!
By the way, this cake is a 4-layer cake with 3-layer of cranberry fillings. It was a success for sure!

And I just made a plain old chocolate cake, LOL. Fabulous looking as always John.

Thanks! It is easier to work than fondant since it does not dry out that fast. But fondant is much easier to tint with different color than marzipan.

Exactly how much do you spend on sugar, John? *grin*

HUGS!

Enough sugar to satisfy anybody who has a sweet tooth! :)
