Happy Birthday Aunt Betty!

It is 1:56 AM of November 20th, so it's officially Betty's birthday. I may be wrong but I think it is her 86th. She is very special to all of us, especially to me and John. At noon today, the family will be gathering and celebrating her birthday. : ) Everyone's bringing something and of course, I made the cake. So here's what I came up with...

The cake is inspired by one of Toni Brancatisano's creations. I just added a monogrammed tag that I cut with my Cricut Cake using the Tags, Bags, Boxes and More cartridge and I used the Elegant Cakes cartridge to cut the letter B

I had planned on chartreuse but my green food color didn't kind of work like I thought. But I think it turned out pretty good for a first time.

The cake came out really really moist and tasty. The fondant turned out really perfect. The gum paste was great... I just wish my work surface took it easy on me but that's fine, I had so much fun making it and the mat from Sweet Wise Inc worked like a charm!!! I can't wait for the next cake I am making!!! 

We'll find out later what Betty thinks! : )

Here's a very happy Betty!!!
