Cake for my friend- who talked me into breaking my "no licensed characters" rule! Since the cake was a gift, it should be ok. One of the reasons for my rule is that I'm not good at getting the characters "just right" even one this simple! I think it's a cute cake nonetheless. Vanilla Bean cake, white chocolate buttercream and fresh strawberries.

This is traditionally a French wedding cake, but I like it all dressed up for the holidays! It is made from creampuffs and decorated with spun-sugar and gumpaste snowflakes. The "old-school" way of assembling involves caramelized sugar, but it makes it difficult to pull the creampuffs off and eat them, so I use ganache for assembly.
