Cake Decorating Community - Cakes We Bake

My 14yr old great-niece was spending the day with me to do some art work for her room but when I went to pick her up I realized that today was her mom’s birthday. I gave her the option to do a cake for her mom and she jumped at the chance. We didn’t have much time because she overslept so we rushed home to put something together. I came up with the design and we got to work. I did the measuring but she did all the mixing. I showed her the tutorial by The Violet Cake Shop and she made them with almost no help from me. Cake is chocolate filled with caramel and peanut butter frosted with dark/milk chocolate ganache. Don’t know who was happier the mom or the daughter.

Bonnie, I think the wonderful thing is that we are all learning from each other.

Your niece did such a wonderful job. What a great way to spend time together. I'm sure this will always be a very special memory for her.

Completely gorgeous Goreti!  The green was definitely a great addition.  Honestly this could have been done by a pro.

Thanks you both.  She really did a beautiful job.  She was so proud.  She loved making those petals.  It is so easy but looks so cute.  I covered the board for her and screwed up on the measurements since I only wanted to cover the area not covered by cake so I made the texture to hide my mistake.  Kind of like it like that.  Then I thought it need a pop of green so she happily made more petals.  She liked doing it so much then we ended up with extra. lol

I just hate it when a 14 year old puts me to shame! LOL!  Not really, she did a beautiful job and should be really proud of herself!
