Kitty In A Flower Basket Birthday Cake

Kitty In A Flower Basket Birthday Cake on Cake Central

This did not turn out as well as I had hoped, but my daughter thinks it looks ok, so I decided to go ahead and post it. I guess I was hoping I could get the kitty more realistic looking than that. This is for my best friends daughter's 10th birthday party today. Flowers are all royal icing. Cat was from a 3D cat pan I purchased online.

I think it is beartiful! I knew it was a cat right off. I dont see what you don't like about this cake it is so pretty! You did a great job on the basketweave, rope boarder royal flowers, well everything looks great.

Thanks. I'm really just distressed with the cat not turning out as realistic as I had hoped for. It's hard to play with the frosting to get the proportions right. The basket and flowers and butterfly, they all turned out great. But I had a different image of the cat in my head and I just couldn't get it created the way I see it in my head. Perfectionist issues I know :)

I think it is wonderful - admitted it is not a "real" cat - but it is a super stuffed animal cat - looks like you bought it at a toy store and put it on the cake, I think that's super! He looks very fluffy! Great basketweave and boarders too!
