Dad's Birthday Cake


This is my Dad's birthday cake. Oh, writing on cakes. You are not a fun time. I think I'm going to dedicate my leftover frosting from this cake to practicing my writing. This was my first attempt at an argyle pattern, and I think it turned out pretty well. My awesome boyfriend was visiting for the weekend and was nice enough to flatten my fondant and cut out allll of the little diamonds for me. I then piped on the crisscross lines and the dot borders. Vanilla cake, vanilla frosting filling, almond-flavored frosting. I think one of my next projects may be a plaid... hmm...
