Right here! :)
My son had his first birthday three months ago, and since I am a huge Pooh fan the birthday cake had to be a Pooh cake. I was gonna post a picture then, but since I don´t have a digital camera, I just recently got a lot of film develloped, and now I can finally show you my cake! It took me ages to get the colours right, and to do the decoration, and then the guests had the nerve to EAT the cake!
Next year I will have to top myself - of course I can´t go backwards

I didn´t have to do any designing, since I baked the cake in a special Pooh cake tin, that I borrowed from a friend. I will have to get my own for next years birthday.

I can´t really remember, I think at least 2 or 3 hours, with all the colour mixing. I was so stressed out in the end, because the guests were arriving, that I messed up the mouth and nose, which were the last things I did, but I should have done it before the rest of the face. I managed to "save" the mouth, but the nose is somewhat out of shape, I realized that after if was to late to fix.

Looks good! I once tried to make a Pokemon pokeball cake, it looked awful and weighed about 10 pounds! I threw it out and went to the bakery. I dont attempt the decorating thing anymore, no patience I guess. Yours looks fantastic!

How in the world did it come to be so dang heavy?!!!!! Must have been nice though all that yummy frosting!!! I love the frosting more than the cake personally!!! Give me frosting and I'm good to go!!! Ooooo have you guys tried this Betty Crocker or Pillsbury frosting it had strawberry and kiwi. I've only seen it once and never seen it again. It is sooooooo delicious, especially with the strawberry cake!!! Yummmm yummm!

Hey, thanx for all the compliments, you guys!
I must admit, I was pretty happy with my achievements

No problem, what´s your fax number? And the good news is that fax paper isn´t fattening at all! So you can eat the whole cake


And it were mostly the grownups that ate the cake, there were very few kids, even my son didn´t get to have a bite (I´m beeing an awfully healthy mum!
) You would think that grown up people would be more polite than to eat my masterpiece!
I must admit, that they were hesitating at first thought.
