I had a major cake disaster today as I was making his birthday cake. For about two months he's been telling me that he wanted a chocolate cake with strawberries on the inside and he wanted snoopy on his cake. I figured it would be no problem to make. I have an amazing chocolate mousse cake filling I use and I was planning on adding strawberries with the mousse. The biggest mistake I made was I didn't make a dense enough cake. When I went to put the layers together the whole thing fell apart. This happened at 3pm, there was no time to start over. I went to the grocery store and found the least decorated cake I could in the bakery. Unfortunately for Cole, I needed a cake with a white frosting background for snoopy and all the chocolate cakes had chocolate frosting so I had to get a white cake. When we got home I scraped off the bakery's frosting (hence the trace of green frosting at the bottom of the cake) and was able to draw a snoopy on the cake.
Happy Birthday Chimp! Hope you're as much fun at 3 as you were at 2!!!
