Birthday Cakes

In Kris' home growing up, there was a tradition of birthday cakes - they were masterpieces. My MIL is very talented in this way. . . I am not. So Kris is very involved in the cake decorating at our home. I do the baking and some shaping, he does the rest.


Of course Eli likes to help with the baking part.


And since we had two parties, we had two cakes. This is the masterpiece for party #1. It is a soccer ball, People. Can't you see that?




For party #2, the true genius came forth. I thought I would show you a bit of the process. Can you guess what this is?



It is Dadot!!


A two year old boy's dream - to eat his best friend! Daddy did an awesome job with the Dadot cake.


Eli chose to eat his eye.



Poor Dadot, you tasted so yummy!

Um, that would be fruit roll-ups ;-) We couldn't find any solid color ones . . . I mean, we totally did that on purpose.
