oh shame, yes I know those days only too well… ive had a few with very heartstopping moments… I will share this story…
this cake I transported to London, it took forever to paint the LV logo and to make the shoe and dog. it was a chocolate cake… I was still relatively new at cake carving and stupidly layered a chocolate cake and then turned it to carve with the layers running vertically…. yeagh you guessed it… 30 mins before I got to my destination, I turned to check the cake… the layers had seperated!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i wish I had taken a pic, but was too upset to think about it, all I could think was HOW AM I GOING TO FIX IT!!!! hahaha… I rushed into the office of the mother who ordered it, took over her office kitchen and quickly whipped up some choc ganache and kinda “glued” it all back together again and popped it into the fridge & prayed like billy ho… it worked!!! . I refused payment for it even though she insisted as I felt they were not getting a decent cake. the lass how got it was over the moon….bless her, how kind :)
thanks for the discussion… we all relate to this, as I can read here… hahahaha… kids hey??
this pic is before damage… glad I at least had that :) 
but if you look at the corner at the base… you can see where its starting to collapse… I did not even see that at the time
