I was asked to make a cake for a fundraiser in June for children with autism. I have never made a cake for an event before and have no ideas. Anyone able to help me out it would be greatly appreciated.

The first thing I think of is:
1. children holding hands surrounding the sides of the cake
maybe a drawing done by one of the kids put onto a frosting transfer
for the top and abve the drawing.....words Autism...Find a Cure

How about a cause ribbon cake with the puzzle piece design?

I think a big puzzle piece would be cool..

How about just making the cake shaped like a puzzle piece?

jinx!! you owe me a coke.
