This was a last minute design change...customer had a pic of the cat in a shoebox and I didn't have time to make any last minute box panels...but she did happen to have a brand new, clean shoe box! So that worked! The only thing I don't like is the tape on the side because since the real cat was fluffy and a tight fit in the box, I had to cut the sides of the box and slide the cake in to give it the tight fit. I also made a little platform in the box to make the cat sit up a bit higher. Somehow I think the cake looks a little better in person... anyway hope she likes it! Its all red velvet cake inside, even the head.
