My husband, better known as "Dada" by the kids, has another love in his life. Sigh. His other love is writing. Screenwriting, to be specific. What better way to celebrate his birthday than to have a cake shaped like one of his movie scripts.
He was quite pleased with this script...err...this cake. I was quite disappointed...in the cake...not the script. The icing kept wanting to dry before I could get it smooth enough so I spent a LOT of time fussing over it. It still had ridges in it. Otherwise, the cake itself is very easy to make. It was a simple 9x13 cake leveled off on top and iced white. The sides have markings to resemble "pages" of the script.
I think my main problem with it is the absence of color. That's why I had the yellow star cut-outs under the cake.
Oh, and FYI, a script is only supposed to have 2 brads in it...not three. A major faux pas, I hear.
