wow those cakes are amazing , gosh you ladies are very talanted . I have done a bit of baking, baked buscuits, cakes etc but iv never iced a cake before( iv put normal choco icing spread over a whole cake a million times but i have never done anything fancy ) so i really dont want to make her a cake and it turn out to be a complete disastor , i guess i could try a trial cake and see how it goes .

Julz definately give it a whirl. If anything you get to eat a whole trial cake.

I am trying to be in denial of my boy turning 1 year old and havent even thought this far as such. Except that it is going to be carrot cake.

kiwi, how do you do your cakes? Do you take a picture and map it out or what?

Thanks.

I print off a pic from google. (A few are from aus womans weekly birthday book.) Then I cut it out to get the outside edge and toothpick it to the cake and cut cake around outline. I then cut away sections of the template and ice it a bit like using stencils. If you are using WWeekly templates take a copy of them. I sometimes also scratch the top of cake with a toothpick to get the lines etc. For eyes etc I will leave the paper circle on the cake and ice around it so when you take the circle off there is nice crisp lines where the paper was. I don't know if this is the "right" way to do it but it is what I have always done.
