The Birthday Girl

Sydney had a birthday this past weekend. We just did the family thing. The big birthday party comes later.
Let's start with the cake. I've seen these chocolate butterfly decorations from the Hello, Cupcake! book and around some blogs. I needed to practice them before I make them for her party. I still need a little more practice but I have some ideas on how to make them look better.
.
It's chocolate cake, chocolate buttercream frosting and chocolate butterflies! Yum.

She was so excited to blow out the candle. Well, she was excited that it was just her birthday.


Happy Birthday Sydney!
