1st Birthday Cake: Safari Cake

As a cake designers, I never usually make the same cake twice.  Every cake is custom designed for each of my clients special occasions.  Many times it is a combination of other cake ideas that they have seen, additional personalized details and then I add in my own design elements.

For this 1st birthday cake, it was a combination of two of my previous cakes:  3-tier animal print cake and the popular elevated tier design.
 Each cake tier was alternating chocolate and vanilla layers with vanilla swiss meringue buttercream.
 
Have a great week!  See you next Tuesday!
 
Coming Soon:  I will be featuring some guests posts from some of my favorite cake-blog friends.  If you are interested in a feature, leave a comment or email and I will send you the details.
