Future Missionary!

So my Husband is the Young Mens President for our ward(Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints) in Blackburn England and they have been putting extra focus on the importance of going on a mission.  One of the Young Men turned 18 and as they have now lowered the age for Young men to be able to go on their mission from 19 to 18 he is determined to get his papers in ASAP. So his wonderful mother commisioned a cake of me with a missionary theme. We decided it needed some humour as well and well... once you see the picture you will see there was definately some humour! He collapsed in laughter when he sa it, so I think our job is done! I asked his mom to print off the picture for me, laminate it and put it on a stick.
And the result is.....

 

I learnt a lot from this cake! like.. keep it out of the heat or it will start to shift and therefore make all sorts of odd shapes. Dowling is also a good thing to have if you have a tall cake... a very good thing. But hey, they were happy with the cake anyway, so you live and you learn. For my next cake I will be making some purchases first. definately!!!
