When I'm feeling a little low, instead of cry & feel bad for myself I bake a cake! It's been a rough two weeks for me, I don't wanna get into the why, but it has. I was feeling really bad the other night and I was tired of it. So I got up and a yellow cake from this new pan I got on sale at Micheals. I promise I loveeeeee Micheals. It's my favorite place to shop. Nowadays when I get money in my pocket I run to Micheals and buy baking supplies, instead of running to the mall and buying shoes. So I bought this pan & I just uses my basic recipe for yellow cake.
You can tell how unprepared I was for this. I didn't have parchment paper, or anything else to put under this cake when I was done. I didn't even have a plate long enought for it.
1-3/4 cups sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
2- 1/2 cups of cake fl
2-1/2 tsps baking powder
1-1/4 cups of milk
1/2 tsp of saltFor my icing it was just vanilla whipped cream and half of it I put a few drops of brown food coloring. I lined the bottom of the cake with white icing to make it look flat, but to make it pop at the same time.  I brought my guitar out so I could compare the colors. In the end they were similar, but not really.

Of course when I start getting into it I forget to take more pictures. But, I had Atleast 5 fondant pieces, the neck, the head, the circle and the part where all the lines meet up. Now again, I didn't make this for anyone, because I still think it looks like crap. But I enjoyed myself and made something different. :)
