FOUR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This cake was fun!  It is always fun when you can create a cake with different textures!  The cake itself was a vanilla raspberry swirl with vanilla buttercream!

Happy 6th Birthday Miss Talon!

Well, this year marked my 3rd year making Miss Talon's birthday cakes!  Oh what a pleasure it has been.  The best part is, at the end of one birthday, she starts planning her next year's cake.  And I absolutely love that she has every bit of faith that I will make the perfect cake for her perfect birthday party.

This years theme... Monster High.  Don't ask me what Monster High is... I have no clue.  And funny enough, at last years Princess Jasmine themed birthday, Talon's gift from Auntie Miller was a Monster High doll.  Go figure... the theme is set a year in advance... what did I tell ya!

So Monster High is some cartoon where the high school girls are vampires... I think?  Talon's favourite is Draulaura... supposedly she's a vegan vampire... kind of like the Cullens I guess...

So I thought and thought and thought about how to make the perfect cake.  At first I planned a 3 tiered display with a cake, cake pops and cupcakes.  That faded and I wanted something better.  I scoured the internet looking for some inspiration from Monster High. 

And then I found it....

Turns out Draculaura celebrated a Sweet 1600th birthday party.  And voila... this is the beautiful cake that she had on the show!

So that is what I decided to make Talon.  A real life replica of that cake!

This cake came in 3 different flavours.  The bottom layer was chocolate and pink velvet layers... so when it was cut open... it was black and pink stripes... just like her hair!

The cake was a huge hit and Talon loved it!

Can't wait to make next years cake Talon!  Happy 6th Birthday.  Love Auntie Miller!
