I got to make a fun little chocolate cake for the beautiful Anika Grace's baptism last weekend. It was just a simple 9" round butter cream cake. Joelle (mama extraordinaire) requested chocolate and that it would say "Anika Grace, child of God". Precious.
I used a really simple technique for this cake. After I frosted it in the white buttercream, I got out some flower cookie cutters and gently pressed them into the icing where I wanted the large and small flowers. I had a tiny cutter I used to outline the centers. I then outlined the flowers and centers with a small circle tip and filled the flowers in with a star tip. I used the same star tip for the edging on the bottom of the cake.
Pretty cute, huh?
And I just had to include some photos of the darling little one.... we got to photograph her when she was just a week or so old in the living room with mom and dad. Beautiful.
