Clowns













It is amazing how there comes a time in our lives when we think clowns are the greatest things on earth.  My girl at 3 yrs of age had a similar obsession.  Silly little clowns in all poses atop a yellow cake (pineapple flavor) was her dream come true. Spring colors in mind (since her birthday falls in March), I used soft pastel colors, whipped cream frosting and banana pudding for the filling.  A touch of m&m's and we were all set to celebrate in her pre-school!

It's March again and time to celebrate M's birthday.  The Princess and The Frog is a story she loves, especially the kissing a frog part.  She considers it to be extremely funny.  I guess funny may change to something else later...  I made her a Princess (and Frog-as shown in separate post) cake. Cake was layered with banana and pudding filling. The bodice and gown were made from whipped cream frosting with pink and turquoise flowers-her favorite colors.

In the series of the Princess and the Frog theme for M's birthday, this was the frog part. Filled with slices of fresh banana and vanilla pudding I think this pair is my best cake yet.
