Still In The Race



Fun to do a whimsical cake occasionally. This one done for a 60th birthday was just such a cake. The cake was Devil's Food with chocolate fudge icing and filling. The top was green buttercream grass, and a race track made from sprinkles.
Sign reads "Not Out Of The Race Yet, Only 60"
