Dads Rat Fink Cake
I did this one last minute so its not as detailed as I would have liked. Used Duffs purple and Satin Ice black. Tried Pistachio cake and Butterscotch cake using French Vanilla cake and jello pudding. The pistachio came out perfectly, the butterscotch seemed to need a longer cooking time and therefor got really brown but everyone loved both :)

Practice Swiss Meringue Buttercream
I wanted to try a BC recipe with just butter and not shortening so I found this swiss meringue butter cream recipe and decided to try it. It makes 3 cups of frosting and only uses 1 cup of sugar! Its not as sweet but tastes just heavenly! Almost like cool whip. My only problem with it is that it doesn't crust and stays as soft as room temp butter. I may use this as a filling but not to ice.

Last Minute Baby Shower
My husband came home one evening and asked if I could do a baby shower cake for his coworker for the next day. I need all the practice I can get so I said yes! The bottom layer is dark chocolate fudge with chocolate & chopped Reese's peanut butter cup filling. The top is Butter Pecan with bavarian cream filling. The momma to be said she had been craving pancakes and loved the butter pecan :)
