This cake was designed for Mom's birthday celebration that happened to fall on Easter Sunday. I couldn't think of any better suited theme than spring chicks!
The chicks on top were the the focal point. The simplicity of the design didn't call for too many details. They are made of rolled fondant.
Thanks to the very talented ladies at Beaverton Bakery and instruction crew at Sur LaTable, I was able to learn the basics of buttercream piping techniques. After just two classes, I was able to make cakes that looked close to what you'd find at the bakery. So much fun!
