Coolest Cakes

Just wanted to share the most awesome cake website. It's called Coolest-Birthday-Cakes.com
Here are some of my own creations that I've made with the help from this website:







And here's a fabulous recipe for butter cream frosting that Cristiana gave me:

1 cup shortening (or half cup butter and half cup
shortening)
2 tablespoons water (warm)
1 Tablespoon Karo syrup
Blend together till smooth

Slowly add 4 cups of powdered sugar
and blend until desired stiffness.
Set some stiffer icing aside for decoration

Add more corn syrup or water to make icing smoother
for icing the cake.

You can also add a little butter flavoring to the icing to
make it taste even better. You can find it in the
spice aisle.

I love it that you do the homemade cakes, I do too. But so far I only did a fairy scene on top of a cake and flower cupcakes, this year she is old enough to request a cake so I may be calling you for tips!
