A lady called and wanted a cake for a combo birthday. These are always the hardest. It is for three guys, 18, 50, and 60 and her daughter 31. I asked her what she wanted on it and the colors. She wanted chcolate roses with green border and writing since it will be the day after St. Patrick's day. This cake will be half a sheet cake and I can't think of anything other than just having flowers in the corners with the names written in the center, which I don't like. Does anyone have a creative way that I can do this cake?

I like this sheet cake. Maybe you can change the border to green from white and take out the pink flowers??

Since she wanted the green border, why not go with the St. Patty's day theme. You could make little shamrocks and but we are so luck to have nmae, name, name in our lives...

Oh I like florimbio's idea! You can look through the "celebrations" album and St. Patrick's Day for some ideas too....

or the traditional Irish blessing -- it starts "May the road rise up to meet you... link: http://www.worldprayers.org/frameit.cgi?/archive/prayers/invocations/may_the_road_rise_up.html )

personalized with names at start of the blessing.

I love the idea of the names on shamrocks really cute. And maybe you can put a big shamrock with the words happy birthday

Thanks everyone! I'm not sure if she wanted a full blown St. Patrick's theme but I think I will call her and see. If she says yes then I will use everyones good ideas. Thanks again!
