In community album: Independence Day (4th of July)

What a pain in the keister this cake was. I used the whimsical bakehouse house buttercream, which waaaay too soft. It also doesn't crust, and I just couldn't get the icing smooth for anything. My star cornelli and flowers are off kilter. It's a white cake torted into 4 layers with raspberry filling, every other layer is white or blue. The party I'm making it for has been cancelled, so I guess DH gets to bring it to work. I need a new icing recipe!

This is so cute! Patriotic with a ladylike touch! I like it so much! You know, for all the other recipes out there, I love my class buttercream.

I agree, striking is the word! Those poor party people don't know what they're missing!

Stunning. I love the different drop flowers. And the color is great. I agree, the cancelled party missed out.
