I found these pictures when I was going through my cell phone, trying to delete some to make room for new ones. (Old phone, not much memory.)
I think I made the cakes for my 26th birthday/family potluck/advance celebration of cousin Katie's birthday. The frosting is store-bought, which I prefer to homemade. (Except the Price Rite store brand, which is made with lard, WTF?) The retro polka dots are Necco wafers. They are made in the Boston area by the same company that makes Conversation Hearts for Valentine's Day, and the wafers are the same material as the hearts. I don't know if the wafers are available nationwide, but around here, they're always available in the drugstore checkout candy lineup.




Cutouts on a pie. Even if you're slapping together a pie with a can of filling and prefab refrigerated crust, this is an easy way to make it special. Try simple shapes like hearts, stars, clovers...
