Chocolate and Movie Dreams

There were two birthdays this week. My daughter said she wanted chocolate cake with chocolate icing. That's it. So we had chocolate death cake. It was SOOOOO yummy!

Then one of the neighbors wanted a tie-die movie themed cake. I didn't know how to do tie-die, but she liked this too. She stayed and helped me decorate. We even had a "who can make the best popcorn" contest. It was a lot of fun. It made me grateful to have such great kids in my neighborhood.

The Horse Cake

*sigh* This cake was cute...until I tried to make the horse. I need lots more practice. The fondant was too heavy and it sagged and wrinkled until the horse looked more like raw chicken than a horse. Here it is anyway.
