This cake, along with a Miami Hurricanes groom’s cake traveled (unassembled) a little over 6 hours to make it to a reception for my brother’s step-daughter.  Normally (NEVER) I do not use real flowers to decorate any cake.  I prefer making wireless sugar flowers for floral cakes and I made them for this cake (real flowers are on the cake in picture)  The flowers came back home with me.  Don’t get me wrong, I love real flowers.  But rarely, if ever, do people special order cake/food ready (pesticide free and/or properly prepped for food contact) flowers/greenery to adorn their cake/food and that can be a problem.

For next Sunday, I get to play a bit…an Olivia themed (not necessarily with her on/around it) cake for my Granddaughter’s 2nd birthday.
