Okay, I have to do another sheet cake, 12x18, this weekend for a 40th anniversary this time. I have a 5x7 picture that she wants on the cake and then writing. Please help me come up with something...thanks, Katie

How about a 60' theme cake - like peace symbols, psychedelic colors, tie dyed, "flower power" (pink, orange, yellow daisy type flowers) etc., since they got married in the 60's. "A groovy kind of love"

I don't know. If it were me, I guess I would make a "frame" for the picture out of fondant or chocolate...then just write beneath it. I always like hearts too if its supposed to be a sweet rather than funny cake. either fondant or chocolate hearts--I usually angle them up off of the cake a little rather than laying flat. The picture will be your focal point and so I guess everything will revolve around that.

You could always go to hallmark.com or another free e-cards site for ideas under anniversaries (if you want to say something other than "happy 40th anniversary"- I do that a lot! Good luck!

That's a good idea, I'll check an see if they have any sayings I might could use. Yeah, the cake is a suprise and it's supposed to be pretty. Ruby Red is the color for the 40th anniversary, so I'm not sure just how or what to do.... icon_sad.gif
