A lady at work wants a small cake for her son's 13th birthday. She wants a 6" round chocolate cake, but is leaving the decorating up to me (obviously no flowers)! The family is Indian Asian, but he is very Americanized. Given that she doesn't want a 3D cake, I'm soliciting ideas from you wonderful folks. Thoughts?
If he likes sports you could make sports balls and equipment out of fondant or royal icing flow in decorations and put them on the sides. You could also make some fondant stars and a big "13", let them dry and then attach them to lollipop sticks or wire and have them sticking out of the top.
Good luck and post a pic of what you end up with,
Heather
What about just a colorful "happy birthday"? Primary colors with swirls, stars, confetti, etc?
