What better way to celebrate a first birthday than with a beautiful cake and cupcakes too! The mother of the birthday girl had decided on a theme of cupcakes but she wanted a traditional birthday cake as well. Using her paper goods for inspiration I designed this cake for her. The bottom is a very tall 8" round cake with a 4" round cake on top. 12 mini cupcakes surround the second tier and an over sized cupcake creates the third tier.
The two round cakes are covered in fondant while all the cupcakes are topped with a buttercream swirl. Finally, I made the "1" from homemade gumpaste. All the cake is a moist vanilla cake with princess buttercream filling.
Happy 1st Birthday!
