Ewan's Birthday

Ewan's 4th of July birthday party and his cake were a HUGE success. Although it took me a really long time to get the cake done, I thought that it looked pretty darn good, and I didn't cuss the icing!!! Thank you, Mom for your advice on the whole icing issues, and thank you to a fun new icing tip that makes it pretty darn easy too.

The cake was a 2 layer, 10 inch, square triple chocolate fudge cake with Oreo fluff filling, vanilla and almond icing and marshmallow fondant. Thank you to my sister Mollie for the recommendation of the Oreo fluff middle! It was YUMMY! And really good practice for me with all the fillings I'll need to do for that wedding cake in Sept...

I didn't have flesh or brown food coloring, so it became a bit of an experiment to get the colors I needed, but thankfully, I did have the correct colors on hand to mix together to get what I needed.

Here are the pics of the cake and of Ewan diving into it face first!
