The first thing I did was of course bake off my cake. I used a 10" square cake pan and made a yellow cake. Once my cake came out I let it cool, then I froze it. While the cake was freezing I went to work making a chocolate buttercream so that I could fill the cake and mask it. after I filled and masked the cake I then froze the cake again.
Making of Sid-
About a week ago I made homemade fondant. Which I used to make sid and cover the cake. The first thing I did was look up a picture Sid. Once I found the picture i liked i printed it and went from there.
