Brooklyn's 2nd Birthday


This is a cake I made for my niece's 2nd birthday! I can't believe she is 2 already!!! I wanted to make something really fun and bright for her and I found some really cute cakes with fondant Gerber Daisies. I don't think my flowers are actually Gerber Daisies but I think they are still cute the same.



I baked all of the cakes and cupcakes and made all of the fondant flowers the day before. I even got the cake covered in fondant.

That made for really quick work on the day of the party. All I had to do was put on the fence and attach the flowers with buttercream leaves. I had originally planned on doing the fence in fondant but amidst all of my craziness I forgot to make the fence when I was doing the fondant. So, alas, we have a buttercream fence. However, I think it actually helped in the long run because it was very easy to attach my fondant flowers to the buttercream fence. Here are some pictures of the final product.
