I had a lot of fun/difficulty making this baby. First of all, I was silly and built it by myself, without a cake mold. I wont make that mistake twice! It fell apart and I had to rebuild it. It is four layers. It luckily turned out to be a football-looking cake that my one-and-a-half-year-old son looked at and said, "Ah-some!" (Awesome). I also had a few helpers this time. The above mentioned son of mine, a friend of ours who was staying over, and the cake owner's girlfriend. It was good times! The clean-up was lonely and not so good though... :)
I got the honor of making a bridal shower cake for my friend Becca. Her wedding colors are lilac and dark purple. So pretty. I copied the shower invitation for the design, and made it shiny, which is why the pics turned out a little strange. It was a beautiful shower. The request I received was to make the same cake that I made for Kristen's wedding cake. So, it is white cake with cream cheese frosting filling and fresh raspberries. Unfortunately, I made twice as much as I needed to! Still working on understanding portions!!
