My daughter's birthday was yesterday! I can't believe she's 7- time surely does fly in the overall scheme of things.
She loves everything pink and girly, so I decided to make her a pink ruffle cake. I've never done anything like this before. I turned to this video for guidance, and here's how it turned out:
I love it! It's perfect for her. While my technique needs a little work to be a little more precise, I love the overall effect of the ruffles. Although, I should've gone up just a little bit higher and it really bothers me when I look at it!
I also made this little paper dress cake topper, inspired by this one at Composing Hallelujahs. I just made it a little shorter so it looks like a tutu. Love it!
I'm sharing this here: come along with me!

Happy Sunday!
Great work. I love how it turned out. I do cakes as a hobby, but I work mostly with fondant. Doing so much frosting would intimidate me.
