40th Birthday Cake

by Carly Ray
(Morgan Hill, CA)

This is a cake that I made for my sister in laws 40th birthday this June. She loves animal print and so I decided to go with zebra. This is also a zebra cake reciepe cake too so it is striped inside!

The stripes inside the cake are made by putting in 1/2 cup of batter in at a time alternating between chocolate and vanilla batters. Always pouring in the center of the pan creating rings. Trust me it looks cool when you cut it!

The cake had vanilla filling and was covered in fondant. The flowers are gumpaste (my first time using it). It also has little edible pearls!

Everyone loved it! Id really like to do it for work one day!
