EarthStar's cake:

EarthStar described their cake:

(Happy 'Lil Raincloud & I made our cakes together, explaining why our ingredients and sticky notes etc., may be similar.) My cake is a three layer vanilla cake with white vanilla frosting and a thin layer of green fondant spread across the top. (The green fondant is supposed to symbolize grass.) All layers were baked and frosted by me. The figurines on top, Sunny & Avian, along with the two cupcakes, present, party hat, and number three in front of the cake, were molded completely from scratch with white fondant. The pink candle is inserted into the three. The Happy Birthday lettering is made from red gel icing. This has been my first time ever at baking a cake, not to mention a layered cake (three layers), and molding/sculpting with fondant and painting fondant figures with food coloring. It was very fun to make, and tasted delicious in the end. It was a challenge to get the food coloring to stick to the fondant figures. I included a picture of the first slice being cut to show the three layers. The cake depicts Sunny & Avian sitting in the grass, with two cupcakes, a birthday present, and a party hat. In front of the cake is a three with a candle on top to symbolize that it's CS's 3rd Birthday. Thank you for looking at my entry, CS is a wonderful and inspiring website that I am proud to be a part of, this contest has helped me gain many skills, and was fun as well. I hope to see more exiting celebrations in the future.^^ -EarthStar
