65Th Anniversary Cake

65Th Anniversary Cake on Cake Central

I made this for my grandparents' 65th anniversary on December 22nd. Because they both have bad eyesight, I tried for bold color with contrasting detail. The color is based on the blue and silver ornaments my grandma decorated her Christmas tree with when I was a child. The cake is 6" and 10" rounds iced in SMBC. I wanted both tiers to be tall--6 inches at least, but the bottom tier layers were flatter than I would have liked and it's too short. I think the taller top tier makes the cake look off balance.

I think it looks perfect! The colors are perfect. You (& they) are so lucky to have them for so many years.
