It's a girl!

Tonights baking effort was a babyshower cake for a friends coworkers. They asked for pink, Pink, PINK, and that's just what they are getting. I had several ideas but in the end went fairly simple. I made the borders of tiny pink flowers.
Not only is the outside of the cake pink but the inside is pink, too. I made a strawberry cake with strawberry filling.
I crumb coated the cake in buttercream and topped it with pink marshmallow fondant. I just love working with marshmallow fondant!
I first made the teddy bear gold but he came out very FAT, even for a bear! So I re-did the teddy bear opting to make it a girl bear our of pink fondant. I like her soooo much better. Here is a comparison. Try not to laugh and my poor little tubby bear.

I'm sure you'll agree that the pink bear is much better. I always end up with leftover cake batter with this cake configuration and I always use it to make another small cake that I send to work with Adam. I do not need cake laying around my house!
Adam liked the fat bear so I stuck it on his cake. I told him not to let his officemates make too much fun of da bear! Heh.
