Aaron's surprise birthday cake...
Well, since Aaron doesn't have a livejournal account and I don't think he likes the site anyway, I feel safe in going ahead and posting some pictures of the awesome cake I made for his birthday tomorrow...err, today rather since it's after midnight...yeesh! Anyways, here's the cake...tell me what you think:
The phoenix and flames are made of iced white chocolate that I poured and shaped myself and then allowed to harden. The "ashes" are made of shaved milk chocolate. It's meant to symbolize the phoenix arising from the flame and ashes to arise anew...much like Aaron's life at the present. Coming out of a relationship, starting a new one and making a new life for himself at the age of 25. I hope he likes it...he should though, because the cake is a strawberry shortcake and the icing is whipped cream...yummy!
