It was Carson's birthday last week, and if you've been reading this blog for awhile you know I get pretty obsessive about birthday cakes. I find it the perfect time to challenge myself to the point of mental breakdown. It always begins and ends as an enjoyable experience but somewhere in the middle my character flaws emerge. You know - crying, cursing, cradling myself into a fetal position on the kitchen floor. This time was no exception. But, this was also no "piece of cake" to pull off HEY THERE PUN! Lots of steps and layers and required equipment. However, once you order things from Amazon like cake collars and liquid glucose and citric acid, you're ready to go! And if you remain calm, eat a lot of the crumbles as you go, MAKE EXTRA FROSTING (I ran out), you too can pull this off. And it's worth it.
