Lauren's First Birthday

This was for my neice's first birthday. All that was asked was for it to be pink and brown and polkadotted. The top part of the cake was to take off and given to Lauren to eat herself. I made sure it was a chocolate cake with chocolate icing under the pink frosting. The excitement of adding more and more frosting to ensure great pictures resulted in a lumpy top layer. The cake was super moist and delicious though, and that is what really matters! :)

I also learned a trick with making fondant shiney and to rid it of the powdered sugar layer needed when rolling out. Rub it down with a little shortening. This gives the cake a nice sheen.
