This was for an 80th birthday party for a gentleman that loves pool. I've been planning and thought about this cake for 8 months. Most recently some things have changed in my life and I knew I needed to knock this one out of the park and needed to blow some people away there were at this party. Strictly personal reasons and did it work. Everyone was in love with the cake and I have to say it may be one of my favorites. I got my inspiration from the gentlemens pool table and many cakes here on CC. Thanks so much for looking.
