Cake Repair, Part 3 - the Presentation


Cake Repair, Part 2

On the day Mom had to take Becky back to college (or at least half way), Pop was left to finish the repair job solo.

Step One:  Gather ingredients . . .
Home made frosting with cream cheese (he didn't take a picture of the cream cheese, sorry) - vanilla and powder sugar



Then he frosted layer one - the bonus layer...



And Finished Product "notice the Hebrew" - in the freezer to wait for the
return of the Anniversary couple....

Cake Repair, Part 1

The Anniversary Cake - attacked by "Pop" for a midnight snack once upon a time.... and since the anniversary is near - repair is necessary...



The Damages up close:




So here we go - Cake Repair: Part One 


Step one: prepare necessary parts . . .

One piece for "filling" and another for the new "bonus" base layer.

Step Two, cut out "new" center for cake, and attempt to plug-hole...




Level the Surface as much as possible...



Install parts...


  And then level the field again . . .




melted original icing to use as glue (. . . I mean, "filling")




Final trim . . .
