PHEW! Spackled with blue icing, edible glitter and sprinkles clinging to our hair, food dye seeping into our fingernails, my sister and I finished our most difficult dolly cake to date in a flurry of activity. Emilio Pucci ladies and gentlemen, to celebrate the birthday of lovely Elizabeth from the Rachel Zoe camp. The tough bit is that without fondant or some other kind of pastry trick, getting the exact psychedelic shapes that make Pucci look like Pucci is kind of a bitch. This cake had five different iterations, whether it was from the frosting breaking three times, or me having to redo it completely (twice) because I simply couldn't get it right. Luckily, Amanda was here to guide me in the ways of fashion and dolly cake design. Enjoy!
Amanda hard at work...
