I’m makin’ the cake!

Sleeping Gir Cake... with tacos!

Must obey the taco man~

For my birthday this year (July 17th, wink wink, remember for next year) the hubby got me a day with a professional cake decorator to create my own cake since I’m very much getting into cake making but lack some crucial skills. So together, Myself and Liz from the Artisan Cake Company in Portland, OR, sculpted this masterpiece!

I’m glad to have learned a LOT about working with fondant and general cake sculpting. I hope to make many more like him and maybe make a profession out of sculpted character cakes!

For those that don’t know, it’s GIR from the cartoon Invader Zim.
He loves the little tacos… and taquitos… he loves them gooooooooood.

This is his lobotomy that night.
