Hey guys! I made another cake! This one here was for a boy that JP went to preschool with last year, and apparently he's into Star Wars. I knew he loved Legos too, so I opted for a combination of the two and here's how it came out.
The words and the stars are all chocolate. I didn't realize it until after I laid the words down on top that they were a little crooked...but that was probably inevitable since I did that part at 5am.
I'm getting horrible with my planning timeline. When I started making cakes a few years back, I would make the cake on Wednesday and then freeze it and continue to work on the cake for the next 2 or 3 days. It was a week long process. Now I'm losing my mind when I start them the day before. This one needed to be done by Sunday afternoon, and I baked the cake Saturday morning and frosted it before work. When I came home from work closer to midnight, I power napped on the couch until 2am and worked until 6am. Power napped until 9am and then finished it up while Perry's friend Wayne and his "friend" Ashlie made us their version of eggs benedict, except without the hollandaise sauce...I won't go into details, but two tries later...
It was nice to have a crowd watching me work....hahaha just kidding! But me not being responsible for breakfast in the exhausted state I was in was amazing!
I also made him cupcakes to take to school. I'm really starting to enjoy decorating cupcakes!
Chewbacca anyone?
