This was for a very special occasion. My sister-in-laws baby shower. We're so excited to meet this baby boy. But in the mean time we had to party and shower her with love and gifts. They themed the nursery with turtles. It's the most adorable room. Turtles are one of my brother's favorite animals, I did a turtle cake for him a couple years ago. Anyway, so naturally the invitations were also themed with turtles. So this is the cake I did. I love it, it came out just how I wanted it to. I recieved a few new tools for decorating, and it makes things so much easier. Loved it.

the turtle is adorable! and that is one very pretty cake! do you do any tutorials? I love your blog and would love to learn from your expertise!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! I'm still just learning as I go. I browse the internet a lot looking at different ways people do things. I have a book that shows a step by step to make some animals, which has helped a lot. I feel with just those few animals I understand how to make so many things.
ReplyDeleteThe cake was perfect! That lil' turtle might be one of your best animal creations yet! Thanks again.
