Erin &
Courtney's Birthday Cake 2012 |
 |
| Flowers made by Katie and I |

| Haley and I making Lilly Leaves |
This is the simple Fondant Cake that I made for Erin & Courtney's Birthday. We celebrated them both on Easter since Oscar and I were unable to travel and visit them on the day of their birthdays. This is another cake I had lots of help with - I taught Courtney, Katie and Haley (my nieces) to make the Gum Paste Flowers and we knocked them out as a team. They were also kind enough to help me cover the whole giant cake with Fondant. Katie completed the entire ruffle border herself along with the pretty gray flower ( and it was her first time cake decorating - she is sooo talented!).
The cake was a huge Red Velvet Cake with cream cheese icing. It is a bit wonky because we had an icing "incident" Easter morning. I was still proud of it-- my first whole cake since my Cancer diagnosis. Without all the help I am sure I never would have finished the whole thing....
