My First Paid Cake Order!

My First Paid Cake Order! on Cake Central

This is for a co-workers's son for his 21st birthday. Had some help with this one--Doug for the image and Oceanspitfire for the lettering method (royal icing letters placed on cake). The FBCT was really thin, so I'm glad it came out okay. Was going for hunter green, but stopped at darkish green because I almost ran out of coloring! Cake is BC French Vanilla baked with the extender in a 9X13 pan (hooray for Magic Line pans!). Frosting is Dream Whip icing with Hershey's Special Dark cocoa added.

For the letters, enlarged a photocopy of some scrapbooking stickers. I traced them in royal icing a few days before hand, so I was able to just pick them up and put them where I wanted. I used a barely damp brush to smooth the icing as I was piping the letters.
