I'm a bit lacking in the idea department, so I'd thought I'd call on you guys for help!!!! Does anyone have a cake idea for twin sisters turning 40??? It can't be too big--only needs to feed about 12-15 people, but I really want to make it special!!!
Thanks for your help! 
Do you know them well? My husband and his twin are both very artistic- one with paints and the other with music, so I've done combination cakes for them with elements of both. Perhaps they have a shared interest that you can incorporate?
Or how about getting a early baby photo of the two, then use those computer images and decorate around it, but leave out the names. Make the guests figure out which one is which (unless they're not identical?)
Or, if the theme is "over the hill" maybe two figures walking downhill, holding hands with something sweet about the two always being there for each other. "Sisters by birth, friends by choice" something sweet like that.
Or, lastly, here's some quotes I found- maybe one will inspire something.
Old age is fifteen years older than I am.
Oliver Wendell Holmes Sr.
Jo: I could never love anyone as I love my sisters.
Little Women
Young in limbs, in judgement old.
Act II, sc. 7.
William Shakespeare > The Merchant of Venice
My salad days, when I was green in judgement, cold in blood.
Act I, Sc. 5.
William Shakespeare > Antony and Cleopatra
No man loves life like him that's growing old.
Acrisius, fragment 64
Sophocles
I am not young enough to know everything.
The Admirable Crichton, act 1.
J.M. Barrie
good luck
