Leave it to Martha to feature a simple 3-step "how-to" on the most perfectly iced cake I've ever seen. Chances are, I wouldn't be able to replicate this gorgeous confectionary marvel with or without a tutorial, but I appreciate their assumption that I could.
Since this cake is obviously deserving of a setting that's comparably girly, I put together a few fantastic finds that would do our ruffles justice. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a pink-loving girly-girl, but there was just something about each of these items and photos that spoke to me! The colors of the balloons and the pink depression glass are especially appealing.

This cake makes me ridiculously happy.
ReplyDeleteI think you're doing the best blog ever, and I will bring more recipes because there are countless cake recipes; some are bread-like, some rich and elaborate and many are centuries old. 2j3j
