I have someone who wants a round cake for a 16th bday. Am planning to do strips down the cake with a 16 on top and maybe some stars on wire.

She wanted pink & lemon, I am not sure if this would look right. What do you think?
I wasnt sure whether to do a lemon cake with pink stripes or a white cake with pink & lemon stripes but still wondering if this would look right.

Should I just go for white with pink stripe, the 16, some stars and hope she likes it?

I think this sounds like an awesome color combo. Maybe a light pink and a little darker pink with a bright yellow. Whichever way you choose to do it, the colors will be great.

I would like to suggest a lemon curd filling with raspberry preserves if you want to tie in the flavor with the colors. It is a really yummy combination.

Thanks for your replies, mother of 16 year old birthday girl now phoned to say her daughter wants the statue of liberty!!!! is she joking she wants the cake for Sat and I work part time lol.
She wanted something to do with New York but cant come up with any ideas there!
