September 16 Adventures in Baking

I had to post a picture of the birthday cake I made for my daughters 2nd Birthday. It is a triple layer vanilla cake topped with 8 cup cakes and Curious George (from a kid's meal).
I was quite proud of the way it turned out. I learned some new tricks that made cake decorating a little easier, like putting a round of wax paper in the bottom of the pan to easily get the cake out (something I have always struggled with). And dipping the spatula in warm water when putting on the second layer of frosting to smooth it out.
