Thomas called it a dog when he saw it, so I'm happy. The strange licorice halo was supposed to somehow delineate his ears, but it looks more like a headband. And he also looks more confused and cross-eyed than the happy and relaxed dog I imagined, but he's a dog nonetheless. And a delicious one, at that. Made with over TWO POUNDS of butter.
In case the sound of arteries clogging appeals to you, I used Martha's White Cake recipe and her Basic Buttercream icing (with a bit of cocoa added for the brown part.) I'm sure there will be a birthday boy post coming up soon.
(PS - His cheek is looking much better already - I think it will be cleared up soon!)
Awesome job Sherrie. I love it. And yes, it sure looks delicious. I love buttercream frosting.
ReplyDeleteWow!! That is one cute cake. Too pretty to eat, but I'm sure it was delicious nontheless :))
