Hi,


I will be making two cakes a yellow with buttercream and a chocolate with chocolate buttercream. For the yellow cake I was thinking of the book pan with palms 23 on one side and a cross or praying hand on the other side.

I need advise on what my chocolate cake should say or look like. 40 years as a priest, what would be good wording?

Im so excited (very nervous). On Sunday my church will be throwing the party for our priest. I have volunteered to make the cakes for this celebration. It will be the first time I actually attend an event where my cakes will be served. I have only made cakes for family and co workers until this point but have never seen others eat my cakes. Im keeping my fingers cross this hobby is expensive. Wish me luck, please.

This cake by Beachcakes has always been one of my favs although it doesn't need any writing on it:

But if you are just planning on a sheet cake you could write: "Blessed" or "Blessed are those who seek the Lord."

HTH and Remember to post the pic. icon_wink.gif

Edited to add: Oh my this one is great also!

makenice... no real advice, but I'd be tempted to use Devil's Food for the chocolate cake, just to be silly. -grin-

Hope you get some good ideas! And good luck with it. You'll do great. icon_smile.gif

makenice,

Just saw a beautiful Bible cake in the All Time Favorites gallery. That would be a wonderful cake for the chocolate one, if you haven't already locked into an idea. icon_smile.gif
