Sarina and Mimi were with Nana, so the night before the party the birthday girls helped me fill the eggs for the Easter Egg Hunt and bake the dark chocolate cake.
And put up decorations
They also helped lick the cake bowl clean. lol
We made "grass" with a concoction of shredded coconut and green food coloring.
The biggest pain was getting the icing on!!
And our final result...
Not bad for a first try huh?
Here is the cake set up on the table for the party...
My cousin made cupcakes with coconut grass too- and we didn't even plan it! Great minds DO think alike! =)
The girls well behaved in their Easter Dresses...
And the girls hammin' it up!
Egg hunt highlights
The cake all lit up!
So now Mimi's birthday is in 3 weeks and I'm on to my next cake project!
We are planning a "Royal Princess" theme, so this is the cake idea I have in mind. (I'm thinking vanilla cake and strawberry icing)
The cake I'm making is a rather simple design but I've been inspired by some beautiful cakes I found on the web. Eventually I would like to work my way up to these!!
I'll update you guys when it all comes together!!
