This cake was for my mom's manager's 50th birthday in March. It didn't have to be special, just really pretty. This cake was a strawberry cake filled with home-made cream cheese icing and covered in chocolate ganache. The piped scrolls (which I know isn't perfect, but it was my first time) was from my buttercream icing, as was the roses' leaves. Finally the blue roses, which KettlePopped made, were fondant. This cake was by far the easiest, and only took about 10.5 hours from baking the scratch cake to putting the roses on. 19 blue roses adorned the cake, which took KettlePopped about 7 hours to make. The dimension of this cake were 9" and 6".

I have to admit, for my first time doing scrolls, and doing them vertically, I think I did a good job =]
My dad and I took it to my mom's work (KettlePopped was working as well) and everyone thought it was beautiful. I received hugs and pictures were taken. Later my mom told me everyone thought it was delicious and not too sweet. I'm proud of this cake; it's so simple, yet so pretty. <3
