For this party, the bottom tier was an almond poppyseed cake with cream cheese filling, and the smaller top tier was lemon cake with a poppyseed lemon curd filling.<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/105/310825541_0f2908fce7_m.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 180px;" src="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/105/310825541_0f2908fce7_m.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/106/310825443_cf40bbd788_m.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 180px;" src="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/106/310825443_cf40bbd788_m.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2968655775232134717-40203065795692553?l=cortneybakescakes.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Cortneyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14372771789705997035noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2968655775232134717.post-33299925082657252912009-01-08T08:03:00.000-08:002009-01-08T08:12:22.143-08:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/120/299412526_e771907580.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 500px; height: 375px;" src="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/120/299412526_e771907580.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a>All you need is a square cake and a reason to celebrate ;) The basic fondant present is simplicity itself with a few ribbon curls and a beaded buttercream border, but that's just the beginning! Just like real wrapped presents, the presentation can be as creative and elaborate as you choose--you imagination is the only limitation.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2968655775232134717-3329992508265725291?l=cortneybakescakes.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Cortneyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14372771789705997035noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2968655775232134717.post-47053078078406717152009-01-08T07:56:00.000-08:002009-01-08T08:12:51.676-08:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/119/284766658_cb1dfce4ac.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 500px; height: 375px;" src="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/119/284766658_cb1dfce4ac.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br />Halloween cakes don't always have to be creepy!
