Wrist watch cake

This is a Birthday cake for my husband.

There is a little description below how I've decorated it.

  3 days before the cake was ready, I made the 'wrist watch' and box sides (I used homemade fondant) and colored it using brown Wilton food coloring for wrist belt of watch, and CK products luster dust Super Gold for watch, and grey Wilton food coloring for box sides.

  

 I baked a Chocolate cake in rectangular shape, and cut it square shape,

To assemble: place one cake layer onto your serving plate. Spread with frosting (I used cacao whipped cream). Gently place the other cake onto the frosting and put the rest of rectangular cake piece of the cake over the square cake. Spread white frosting over the top of the cake.

 

put it to cool into refrigerator for 1-2 hours. After, take the "sides of the box" and stick it to the sides of your square cake. Refrigerate it for 15-20 minutes. While the cake in the refrigerator, roll the white homemade fondant (using the corn starch) as thin as you can. Take the cake out-of the refrigerator and cover the top of the cake with rolled fondant.  And put the ready and dried "wrist watch" onto the top.

Fruit salad

This is a very easy and yummy fruit salad for kids and adults as well. You can use any fruit you or kids like.

Fruits for the salad in the picture:

• 1 ripe pineapple*
• 2 kiwis
• 1-2 Oranges or tangerines
• 1 banana
• 1 pear 
• 2 apples
• 1/4 cup  pomegranate seeds

Cut the pineapple in half the long way and scoop out the pineapple flesh with spoon.  Cut it (pineapple flesh) into cubes. Cut the rest of the fruits into cubes and put them into "pineapple bowl. Simple but original fruit salad is ready! 

* How to tell if a Pineapple is ripe?
1. Look at the pineapple. It should reflect a golden yellow color
2. Smell the pineapple. If it smells sweet, then it's ready. If it has no scent, it's not ripe.
3. Touch the pineapple gently. It should be firm to a gentle press and only yield slightly. If it's soft or spongy, don't buy it.
