ONE SWEET SEVENTH BIRTHDAY!
This cake was made for my little girl's birthday. Her theme was CANDY! So, the bottom tier was vanilla with sprinkles mixed in the batter, filled with almond icing. The top was chocolate, filled with chocolate icing. The whole cake was iced in buttercream and then airbrushed. Chewy Spree candy and dots were used as a border.
