Cute idea! That cake was incredible and looked like it was homemade.

Olivia loves Elmo, so we did the Sesame Street theme. The top part of the cake was for her to dig into and she had a blast with that. Thanks for letting me share!

Michelle,

It's the Hugs 'n Stitches pattern. I thought it was so cute. We have a custom bakery here that does such a good job and I just left an invitation for them and that's what they came up with. I loved it.

We went with Noah's Ark. The little people were toys for him to keep. It served a lot of people. I think I may have posted it before.
