As a side note: Linda said that every cake decorator always have that one time curse when the cake didn't make it *like my case - it fell!*... I guess its good that I got my curse early :) heh heh heh....

P's Birthday Cake, Part 2
So I ended up making another cake for P... to bring to church. This is how it looked from the sides
And from the top. Nothing too fancy, I didn't have that much time to do the cake like last time (Plus I'm still recovering from all the horror of the last cake) Now that I think about it... it's so Indo :P So many roses...
And this is how it looked at church, being cut up. At least the cake made it through in 1 piece :D Yay! It's Red Velvet Cake with Chocolate buttercream. *By request of the birthday gal* :)

P's Birthday Cake, Part 1
This... was supposed to be P's birthday cake back in November 2008. Oh I was prepared this time. Made sure there was enough icings, created the royal icing daisies and the colorflow butterflies (P likes butterflies) days in advance, and made sure I was in no rush for the D-day. Nothing can go wrong. Or so I thought.

Well first, let me show you the sides of the cake. See the work I put into this cake? :S....

A close up....
You can imagine how upset I am the whole night.... :(

So. I was about to transport the cake. *I didn't bake it at home... it was supposed to be a surprise*. Placed it carefully on the box and walked outside to the car. It rained just hours ago (see where I'm going). And the road was slippery.
Well guess what? I slipped. :'( I FELL!
The cake box went flying out of my hands, and right to the ground - 3/4 the cake spilling outside. Smushed.
And I was kneeling on the ground. Speechless. I think I stayed on the ground for a minute or so... :P
Well... luckily I also baked these mini cupcakes *again as a favor / to pass around*
PS: Was so glad I took pictures of the cake already - another thing I learned: Take picture of the cake IMMEDIATELY :).
Oh and the funny thing is *now*, hours before the cake incident, my mom was like "Careful bringing the cake!" (Gee....-_-'....)
