On the weekend we celebrated T's first birthday with family and close friends...BBQ style. It was a fantastic day and the weather even cooperated. In total, 32 people (including kids) celebrated baby T's first life. We are blessed with wonderful family and fabulous friends.
The cake. It took me at least 20 hours to create this safari cake! And WAY more time was spent conceiving the idea! After a few moments of panic (an icing issue, fondant bubbles, drooping giraffe, and running out of time) it all came together perfectly. Just as I had imagined! The cake flavours were; chocolate with swiss meringue buttercream, white with milk chocolate buttercream, and carrot with cream cheese buttercream. All yummy! And in case you're wondering about the animals...each was handmade by yours truly...and each took 1 1/2 hours to create!
T and his smash cake!
He didn't try a bite of cake but he sure "smashed" it!
What an awesome day. Now I've got 364 days to plan the next one!
