My Pink Fix!

As with the Cinderella cake, I was very excited when I was asked to make a ballerina!  Don't get me wrong, I love getting to make all the superheros, dump trucks and lego cakes for my sons and nephews, but getting my hands on pink icing is a bit of a rush!  This was a 4 layer white cake with fresh strawberry filling and buttercream.  The ballerina, large flower and "5" were formed out of gumpaste, while fondant was used for the rest of the decorations.  I was happy to hear that the birthday girl "loved it" and look forward to doing this again one day!
