This was a bridal shower cake for a girl in my ward. I was told she liked pastels, especially purples. The cake is covered in fondant, the ribbon and daisy are real.
It all started with my oldest son's 1st birthday cake - a baseball. After a couple more (lame) attempts at some birthday cakes I realized I didn't know enough to make the cakes I wanted to be able to make. Plus, I thought it would be fun to carry on my mom's skills for my kids so they would have fun cakes like we had growing up. So, a lot of practice and two Wilton classes later, here I am making wedding cakes, birthday cakes and cakes for other special occasions.
