A kid's party.
Admittedly I did do a vast amount of running around on a sweltering day to get it all done. But still. I'm getting old... er!
And so is my daughter: it was her 6th birthday. A cat themed celebration, as you can see.
And like last year, I had put aside the week of the party for all the party-prep and decorating, but then got caught up in work demands; school events, seminars,etc, and had to squeeze the cake decorating into a short few hours. On the hottest day of the week.
But, it all got done in the end; at price of a few (more) grey hairs....
The cake was inspired by one done by Sweetlake Cakes (design used with permission).
The cat topper tutorial is available from Crumb Avenue.
Here is how I achieved the even spacing of polka dots on the top tier (which was a 4 inch dummy cake).

Almost purr-fect!

Happy decorating!
