Birthday Cakes

I had the opportunity to create 2 birthday cakes over this past weekend. One for Marian and one for Eric. Eric requested a white cake with lemon filling. I made Marians a white cake with raspberry filling.
Here's a tip: You can buy pie and cake fillings that dont soak thru at Cash and Carry for a great price. They also sell them at the Decorette Shop.
Marians cake was covered in fondant and decorated with the sugar (gumpaste) cherry blossoms I made. Erics was covered in a vanilla buttercream frosting. YUM. :)


Oh - one more thing. I made the guitar by using the "Frozen Buttercream Transfer" technique. You can search for free coloring pages on the internet and find some really cute designs to trace. Really fun. :) i just wish I would have smoothed out the sides of the cake a bit more. Oh well....live and learn. :)
