Ok, we're having our daughter baptised on Sunday and (excuse the twee-ness!) we still have a layer of our wedding cake and thought of using that. Now I hate fruit cake and have a friend making a chocolate cake so I'm not really bothered, but......the fruit cake has been stored in a cool place at my parents' for nearly 5 years. I *think* it's still ok - it apparently smells fine and isn't (obviously) mouldy. So it should be fine, yes?
So if I want to0 use it I know I need to re-do the marzipan and icing. I have never done this before - is it REALLY difficult?? I don't really know anyone who could do it and am thinking of having a go myself. If I totally balls it up, I still have her real cake (the chocolate one) so I'm not really bothered.
I need hints, tips, how-to and exactly what to buy. I know I can get that roll out icing and I reckon even if I couldn't do the whole thing, I could cover the top and it would look kinda ok...wouldn't it?!
Please help!!
