Spiderman Cake

 I thought it would be fun to show the birthday cakes we make.  Two years ago, when the twins were about to turn 5, I decided to invest the money I would have spent on store bought decorated cakes, in learning how to decorate cakes myself.  So, my 2nd oldest DS and I took a cake decorating class.  Now, between the two of us, we can do a fair job on our own birthday cakes. DS is 'way better than' me when it comes to writing on the cake.  So he gets to be the one to do all the "Happy Birthday's"!  Hence, he was far better than me when it came to making the web on this cake.  In fact, he decorated the entire cake on this one - made the icing too!

I do have to say though, I admire ANYone that has the patience to decorate cakes and the ambition to practice to make it perfect.  I SO do not enjoy decorating cakes.  Well, it's OK sometimes...  At any rate, I know I am not cut out to decorate cakes for anyone else...too much pressure for making it perfect!
