A piece of cake

Fantastic Wayne Thiebaud workshop at the National Gallery of Art this past Sunday. The girls were quite interested in the above painting;-) and made these cakes with fake icing after touring the galleries. If you would like to try this at home, here is what you need.

- A round box from crafts store

- Sargent Creative Craft Paint colors in red, yellow, white, brown, violet and green.

- Elemer's Tile Grout

- Fake fruit

- Decorating squeeze bottles from Crate & Barrel

(1 part Sargent Art Creative Craft Paint to 5 parts Elmer's Interior Tile Grout).

They look so real we are going to play a trick or Mr. B when he returns home in a few days;-)

You did so great with the fake icing, you'll have to try real cakes. They'd be fun to eat.
