"Hi Dhanya, Everybody absolutely loved the cake! The kids went gaga over it! I had 2 or 3 kids coming and asking me about the flavor! The animals were a great hit too! Adults were amazed w the flavor. None of them have ever tasted anything like that before! Kamakshi loved it too! She was so exited to see all the animals and so were all the other kids and adults in the party. Thank you very much for helping us make our daughter's birthday a grand

Mini Tierd Cake

I have always wanted to make these mini tiered cakes,but never got the oppurtunity to make it. I have to make an octagon cake for tommorrow ,and I didn't have the octagon shaped pans. So had to bake a square cake and cut the shape. I ended up with 4 tiny triangle cake pieces. So I joined them and made it in to tiered cakes.Covered it with fondant and put some tiny fondant roses.

These are the 2 cakes I made this weekend.
