It is really only when you attempt to recreate these cakes that you realize the level of artistry and skill that goes into making these elegant cakes. Mine always look a bit flustered!
I used this recipe for the cake and I can't find the website where I got the frosting recipe. I think it was just a random google search and honestly it's better that I don't have the recipe. I have to say I was not happy with how the frosting turned out. I'm not sure if I chose the wrong recipe or if I did something wrong but it was too runny and not fluffy enough. It tasted okay though :).

I really really really need a cake stand. At the moment I use an upside down Tupperware bowl to store the cake :(. More on the cake stand need later....
See what I mean about the frosting being too runny. Boo. It's melting!
I thought it would be fun to do the teal frosting on the inside too.
I may have used too many sprinkles in the batter but it still looks fun and tasted great!
So the cake stand... I have a dream cake stand in mind and I know I could just find and order one from EBay but I have this weird need to find it in person. I have gone to a few flea markets and antique/thrift stores looking for it but have yet to find it. It's like a personal goal to find one and snatch it up, carrying it out of the store with a wide grin on my face.
