I wanted to share this cake that I made for my son's 5th birthday last year. I made it out of a sheet cake (Betty Crocker white cake) and one tub of white frosting (it looks off-white here), some icing colored red, some blue sprinkles and gummy candy for eyes and mini marshmellows for the teeth. As you can see, the pinata was inspiration for it. I am sharing this because I am about to embark on a butterfly cake next week for one of the girls in my bible study who is about to have a baby girl. Anyone have any ideas about how to do that? Don't spend too much time on it, I am probably just going to do a sheet cake yet again and see if I can use the cut out pieces to make a little butterfly, too.
Also, I have been thinking about this. Would anyone want some real, authentic chinese recipes? I have been wanting to get some from my ayi, Tian Mei that helps in our house and didn't know if that would be of interest.
Another question: do you call it icing or frosting? I call it both :)

I love the shark!
We did a butterfly cake for G's 1st birthday- a circle cake cut in half and put together backwards, and then twizzlers and stuff for the antenna.
And yes!!! Chinese recipes!!!
That is adorable. I am afraid that I will not do very well with the cakes.
I say icing. I'd love some Chinese recipes (and some Chinese food delievered here, too, please!).
Awesome shark!
I'd totally be interested in authentic Chinese recipes.
OK - I will be working on some authentic Chinese recipes! I am excited to have another reason to do this!
