I made a practice cake tonight for Levi's birthday tomorrow. I am silly and have to try things out before I make them for people. Levi wanted whipped cream icing, but I've never found a recipe I like. So tonight I made this...
I made three 6 inch white cakes from a box. Then I cut one into three layers and put some warmed strawberry jam between the layers. I made a whipped cream icing that just isn't sweet at all and it kind of leaves a taste in your mouth. Tomorrow I'll make this icing, because I think it will be more like the whipped cream icing they use in bakeries. If anyone else has a recipe they like, please send it to me.
I got some super cute wrapping paper from Michaels tonight, so I covered the cardboard round with it. It is Martha Stewart wrapping paper, they had a bunch of different kinds for a dollar each. There isn't very much, but it is really thick and pretty.
