My parents where going to be at my house for my mom's birthday and I have never really been able to make cakes for my family so i seized the opportunity. I made her a two tiered cake. I decided to make the stripes go horizontally instead of vertically just to have a different look. I hand cut the flowers out of gum-paste and stuck them on the cake. I think it turned out cute and she loved it. It was a bit more cake than we actually needed for 5 people, but I wanted her to be spoiled for once.
