A customer wants a simple birthday cake for a 15 year old boy. Butter cream, nothing fancy. Happy Birthday, so and so. My question is: what kind of border would look good for a guy? I'm thinking no frilly shells and such. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

Some options

 

shells piped with a round tube

 

S shapes that interlock to make a ropy textured border, same colour as the cover icing

 

X's piped with a medium round tube that overlap to make a woven look
