I made a birthday cake this week for my 12 year old granddaughter. A nice golden yellow cake with chocolate cream frosting decorated with her name and flowers, all the good stuff. I put it in my cake carrier before putting any candles on it. On the way out the door the cake carrier opened up and the lovely cake turned over onto the carpet! OH NO!!! Well, I managed to flip it back over and put it back in the carrier, very smooshed looking but otherwise okay. I took it to the party and told the girls they all had to pretend to be blind while Stephanie blew out the candles! They thought it was delicious and "really really beautiful, Grama!" That was love talking I know. Better luck next year!!
