They say time flies when you're having fun? Well, my little guy is just a hoot - keeps me laughing all the time. These years really are flying by WAY too fast. He excitedly celebrated his big 5th birthday last weekend. And by his special request I made him a Cat In The Hat cake. He absolutely loves Dr. Suess books and had a hard time deciding what character he wanted his cake to be this year.
I have been decorating cakes since I was in high school (which seems like forever-ago). Birthday cakes are my most favorite to do. I have tried using fondant because it adds such creative possibilites - but I have not had much luck with it. If any of you have any tips for me I'd love to hear them. I have more cakes for nieces and nephews to do in the next few months!
Wow! This cake is incredible! That's one lucky little guy. : )

I adore the cat in the hat! But my favourite is green eggs and ham!!! :) I'm so envious of the birthday boy! That is one super awesome cake. I'd be bragging nonstop if I were him!
ReplyDeleteOh, WOW, Gretchen! Your cake looks fantastic! You did an amazing job! I wish I had the patience to give it a try. I took two cake decorating classes but my instructor didn't know much more than I did. :(
ReplyDeleteHappy 5th birthday to your sweet boy!
