I Am In The Cake Mood!

I finished my Wilton Course II Cake Class last Tuesday. I was taught how to make the flowers on the below cake and basket weaving. Basket weaving is lots of fun...just makes your hand very tired afterwards! I really like how "pink" my pink was...just the way I like it!

Introducing....the "Perfect Party Cake"
Yes, that is a "real" lit candle! I won't be updating my blog again until Sunday...not only will I be posting about the dessert(s) I made, but also about something I am getting that is seven weeks old and hairy. Do you know what it is?
