I did two baby shower cakes for my sister and they turned out wonderfully thanks to everyone here on this site. Your tips and suggestions were just the thing. I baked two half sheet cakes, one white, one chocolate, refrigerated them overnight (which I would not have thought to do with out you guys), frosted them with the Odessa's buttercream recipe (I added an extra tablespoon of vanilla to the recipe), painted them with food color diluted with vodka, then topped them with baby booties made of cupcakes.

I just uploaded the photos to the gallery, sorry the pics are crummy, but U took them at midnight when I finally finished up the cakes.

Everyone at the shower raved. I even got asked if I took orders! I don't, it's just a hobby. One lady told me they tasted store-bought! When I asked her what she meant, she said she couldn't believe I made them since they were just like the ones you get at the bakery! Wow!

You did a great job!
