Ruffle Lovin

A couple weeks ago it was my adorable little brother Will's birthday. He turned the big 6. Anyway he has the BIGGEST personality and is probabley the most hilarious kid every. Want to know what his favorite show is? Cake boss. Oh yeah, you heard right. So because I am the great big sister that I am I volunteered to make him his cake. After I volunteered I got this phone call a few minutes later...

Will "Hi Heidi!"
Heidi "Hey wildabeast (he has a plethora of nick names)"
Will "okay just so you know, for my birthday I want a five tier, fondant covered, red velvet cake that is decorated in the batman style and on the top I want a giant batman head made out of rice krispie treats and covered with fondant like they do in the show cake boss. Okay?"
Heidi" Uh...ok?"
Will "okay great I can't wait, goodbye"

haha he knows exactly what he wants. Well a few weeks later I talked him down to two layers, and instead of fondant I tried the ruffle technique and then he changed from batman themed to football. It was quite the adventure making this cake. But Will said that it was prettier and tastier then the cake boss cakes and so even if he just said it to make me feel better I was fine with that!!

The cake was definitely not perfect, but you know what? I feel great about how it turned out. I had a minor (okay major) meltdown in the middle of making it but alls well that ends well!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY WILL I LOVE YOU SOOOO MUCH!

Insincerely Yours,

Heidi Jane
