Red Velvet Cake Creations

I used the Red Velvet Recipe (Found here) to make 2 friends birthday cakes. For both cakes I doubled both the red velvet cake and cream cheese frosting recipes.

Cake #1: Two layer red velvet cake with cream cheese frosting in a middle layer and outside. The design of the cake was the girls favourite quote, and her likes of music, and film. This was my first time writing cursive on a cake where I made no mistakes, quite proud of the achievement. The sides of the cake had shredded coconut.

 

Cake #2: Two of my friends had a joint birthday which was on a boat, so to coincide with the theme, the birthday boy and girl wanted a boat cake. Due to the heat, some of the icing melted and ran through the cake, but the idea is still there.

One of my friends wanted the sun, and then wanted it to be to be turned into Pacman. Therefore, I cut out the mouth and tore some black fondant from the letters to produce the eye. 

Good food, good times!
