Birthday party with family cake. |
Addison's second birthday cake for her family party was similar to the first, but still different. I wanted her to be surprised again. I didn't want her to see this cake I had spent hours working on only to think, "It's the same as last time." She probably wouldn't have cared much because cake is cake, but to me it had to be special.
I used the pink and green again, but this time the cake was much bolder in color. I loved it. I was also able to use the same color flow icing strawberries I made for the first cake, and they still had matched well.
One obvious change besides the color was the piping. I did paisley on the bottom tier this time around. It's so girly and cute. (Just like Miss Addison.) I love the way it turned out on this cake.
This cake was slightly larger with a 8 inch 4 layer bottom tier and a 6 inch 4 layer top tier. The cake was alternating layers of vanilla and milk chocolate cakes filled with vanilla buttercream.
Classic. Simple. Delicious. Appeals to most everyone.
I kept the topper the same just because it's cute and fits perfectly with the theme.
Hey Mary-Kate! Just found your blog from a link on Joy Poot's blog and was totally surprised! I love all these delicious cakes and cookies you've made. They're so gorgeous!! I will definitely be keeping up with this site. :)
