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.

This was made to go to a Thirty-One Purse Party.  It was modeled after an actual purse that the company carries.  The body was iced with chocolate buttercream, then accented with fondant diamonds and flowers.
