Birthday Cake


Using the inspiration of grocery store bakery cakes, I create this cake for my sons birthday by sprinkling the boarders with small candy's and draping squiggly lines around the sides. For the writing, I used Wilton tip #134 which has 5 very small holes along a straight line. I filled the piping bag with yellow & dark orange buttercream but ran out part way, so added the other color I had available, green. I think it created a cool 3D effect for the top of the cake. I usually do not make complicated cakes for family occasions since my time is taken up on other party preparations. This was a quick cake to put together but fancy enough for a birthday cake. I used buttercream for the frosting.
