Today we made another present cake! We are getting to the point with these cakes that we really don't even have to talk (or think, much) about the cake at all while we are making it... We just blab about whatever is on our minds and the cake just sort of happens... 
Laura and I both have sweet friends who asked us to make a cake for the baby showers they were hosting. We decided that since the paisley cake was so enjoyable to make, we would look closely at that experience to see what we could learn. Mostly what we came away with was eating dinner before we started yelling at each other and vowing to never speak again would be the first step to successful baking/ decorating (we are two GRUMPY girls when hungry). This changed our experience drastically! We were calm, happy, and simply loved every second of the process!
No strict guidelines were given for the second cake... we had a vague idea of what we wanted, but ultimately decided to "go with the flow." Needless to say, we were nervous! With several new supplies, we tried a few things until we came up with an idea that worked (we think) very well! As Laura said, "It looks like a REAL baby gift!"
By the end of the night we were talking about how much we ADORE making cakes for baby showers! There are endless possibilities for sweet designs!!!
