Hi everyone,
I need some support...my dh has a coworker that is leaving his company after 35 years of working. He is trying to get the company to get the cake for the party from me. I'm a little nervous because it needs to serve 100+ people!!!
Here's my idea...2 11x15 pans iced together to make one huge sheet cake. On top use a 8 or 10in round and make a "spinner" type thing with different sayings (eg rest, sleep, go for a walk, snack, go gambling) and write on the cake "what will you do on your first day of your retirement?". I was going to make the arrow out of gumpaste and attach it to a dowel so it actually spins.
My husband doesn't seem crazy about this idea but he's not a very visual person. He ALWAYS says.."I can't picture it". Ugh!!
What do you think??
