Oh what a day... I am beat!



Except for minor fixes and add-ons after delivery, this cake is complete. I bought blue flowers at the cake decorating shop. I brushed them with gold accents. I made color flow numbers and brushed those gold too. I used store bought silk flowers, and quickly removed the extra green leaves from them. I put them on with gold paper leaves and added the "happy anniversary" logos on the front edges of the cakes.
I still need to perfect my icing recipes. I like to decorate with buttercream, but mixing in butter is no fun... since it melts as you pipe it on the cake; from the heat of your hand. In and out of the freezer takes too much time. However making it from all shortening makes it taste and feel like wax. Yummy! NOT! LOL

Anyhoo... back to the delivery prep. :)
