When I'm low on blog material it's nice to have the occasional picture that I snap at work to use.
Last Friday I did this cake. They asked for gold, rose gold and wanted daisies. I told them I couldn't guarantee anything on the colors because I go by a color chart when mixing colors and it may not be exactly what they were picturing. I also told her that I'm more of a rose person so I wasn't sure about daisies. She said no problem just do whatever. I did mainly roses but threw in a few flowers that were daisy like but not great. My version of rose gold looked more like peach to me but I heard she was happy with it.
Yesterday while at work someone mentioned that it was one of the guys birthday. As a quick last minute thing I drew him a birthday cake on a piece of cardboard box. This is his redneck birthday card cake.
WOW - that cake is gorgeous!
