What I did today...

So, I told you in the last post that I loved that cake and wanted to make it.... TADA!:

chocolate cake, decorated with white buttercream frosting.... big swirls to look like roses.

yes, I did accidentally forget to take a pic of it BEFORE I started spraying the color on...oops!

The colors... these little babies are around $3 each, but I was able to pick them up at ACMOORE with a 40% off coupon. YAY! 







With just the yellow...

with some pink...

with a little more pink....

and the finished product!






I really didn't want it as varigated as it is.  I just stink at using those sprays obviously (or need more practice).  Also, I wasn't real happy with the icing... it's a "buttercream" (with no butter flavor or real butter in it)... and it was too whipped really.  It was supposed to crust over and I don't think it did very well.  Anyhow... I still think the cake is gorgeous... next time I'll use my own icing recipe and maybe I'll practice a little more using the sprays. :)
