Addy's 4th Birthday Cake


Double layer 9x13 Milk Chocolate Cake

I made 2 batches of vanilla frosting and didn't use all of it but came close, maybe 1.5 would have been enough. I used this recipe for the frosting http://sallysbakingaddiction.com/2013/03/19/easy-homemade-funfetti-cake/

For the decorations I used the Wilton Class 1 buttercream, the one with all shortening.

Bottom border: Adeco tip 30
Top border: Wilton tip 12
Leaves: Adeco tip 112
Vines: Adeco tip 4
Big flowers: wilton tip 21
Small flowers: Wilton tip 18

Tinkerbell top is from Amazon.

60th Birthday Cake for my Dad

I made the birthday cake for my Dads 60th birthday party, other than trying to make it with three kids wanting my attention, it was fairly easy. White cake, lemon cookies & cream filling and vanilla buttercream frosting.

The face is a drawing of my Dad that he made up and draws often. He loved that I drew it on the cake.

To make the six, I had 9 inch cakes, cut one in half and then using a bowl as a guide, cut out the curve. Using cake scraps and frosting, I aligned the curve with the circle and then frosted it all together.
