    Easter Cake

    I thought I would do something a little fun for Easter this year. Chocolate Cake, with buttercream icing, and candied pansy's on top.
    I used a half flat/half ribbed bit to do the sides, kind of a lazy man's basket weave (or lazy woman's I should say).

    I died the buttercream Green for the top I wanted it to look like grass, so I used a Grass Tip. The key to making grass is to squeeze then pull the tip away really quick, otherwise you'll end up with spaghetti!

    Lastly Max got in on the Easter Photo's too! After we took the cake away . . .  Duh!

    HAPPY EASTER!!!

      Okay, so now you can decorate cakes too??? Actually, I knew that! LOL It looks amazing! I haven't decorated a cake in quite some time (well, since the girls outgrew mom making their cake for their birthday parties!!!) This makes me want to break out my cake decorating box!
