Swirls Wedding Cake and A Helper!

This buttercream wedding cake included three tiers. Two vanilla with buttercream, with the middle tier chocolate with chocolate buttercream. Each tier was decorated with piped swirls in three different colors. I don't usually do just buttercream cakes, so this was a fun change of pace. I was pleased with the result.


My cute daughter is always so patient as I decorate cakes. This time I made her a small cake to decorate for herself. She made piles and piles of frosting on top! Mmmm! I think we have a future sugar artist on our hands. :)
