"Congrats! You're one year closer" cake.

Every once in a while I'll get a call, email, or text asking me to make a cake. Caking is something that I've enjoyed doing for sometime now. In 2002 I worked at Baskin Robbins and I'm pretty sure that kicked off my cake making interests. I learned a good bit over there, even how to "ice" a cake in the freezer! Not my favorite thing. Anyway, I digress, here are a few pictures to show my journey for this cake. I hope you enjoy!



In it's natural habitat. ;)




Simple filling request. Just chocolate icing.



Covered and not yet smoothed.


All done! I know, I should have taken a few more pictures in between. Lesson learned! I had a lot of fun practicing my drop lines. I enjoy working with fondant, but I'm growing fond of perfecting my piping skills.




That's it for now! I'll show you what I did with the scraps another day. Have a great weekend!
