The Cake



OK, so the birthday cake deserves a post of it's own!! I slaved over the planning of this cake for weeks after being completely inspired by my friends Amy and Kari creating a fantastic pregnant mama cake for a baby shower. Adi had some pretty clear specifications for me: it had to have fairies and mermaids on it.

I searched and searched for ideas online but nothing really seemed like it would do. I had a lot of fun looking though. Flickr.com has some amazing cake photos out there! I ran across some cakes with photos on them and I realized that Hy-Vee makes photo cakes. I called to find out if they could print the photo transfer only so I could put it on my home baked cake. For $5 I got the transfer to add to my made from scratch cake - perfect!!



Check out the cupcake with broccoli and a blade of grass - Cam's creation!

Great job on that cake... I had no idea you could just buy the transfer and still have a home-made cake... that's totally the best of both worlds!!!
