It’s a piece of cake!

Filed under: Helene,Josie — Helene @ 2:58 pm

My mom and I took the first two Wilton cake decorating classes last fall. My goal was to be able to make a nice birthday cake for Josie’s first birthday. If you look at the post about her 1st birthday part you’ll see her enjoying her cake. But I didn’t put up a picture of the cake before she got a hold of it. While I technically made the whole thing myself, my mom did help me with some of the borders (that’s a lot of pearls!) and with figuring out where to place the flowers and figures. Thanks mom! Here is what the cake looked like put all together:

And here is what the separate tiers looked like:

And finally, my niece, Molly, had her First Communion this last Sunday. My mom and I made a special cake for her party. We tried something new and made a “stained glass cross” on top. We had a lot of fun and think it turned out pretty well.
