A Spring Baby


Today was Lisa's baby shower - a first time mom expecting a baby boy in the spring!!! Lisa, you're in for a wonderful treat.

Chocolate marshmallow fondant was used as a base cover for both cakes, then they were adorned with colored marshmallow fondant cut-outs. Funny, I thought this cake would take no time to assemble, since the design was so "simple." Hmmmm, have you ever stamped out 350 fondant circles? I have and it turns out... it takes some time. Good thing The Office was on Hulu. This week's episode, The Delivery, was very fitting for this cake. Watch it.... so hilarious.

In any case, I just love how this cake turned out. So simple. So pretty.
Vanilla cake with dark chocolate ganache buttercream.

The inspiration for the color scheme came from my son's chairs.... so cute.
