But, I haven't really met a cake I didn't like.

Originally Posted By Ursula Wow, I get to pick my own cake? Baskin/Robbins mint chip ice cream cake cake with that yummy white frosting. Three candles-it looks cute that way.

She always makes our cakes and they are off the hook yummy!
Originally Posted By amazedncal2 Yellow cake with homemade milk chocolate fudge frosting. Maybe a buttercream filling. Decorated with yellow buttercream roses which I will gladly accept on my piece of cake, thank you. A #5 and a #2 candle because by the time all 52 candles would be lit there would be candle wax all over the cake from the first candles lit

Originally Posted By goodgirl Okay, listen up people. You still have time to get this baked and ready for tomorrow. I want a round three layer yellow cake with homemade bavarian cream filling. Buttercream frosting made with real butter--no margarine or crisco. A pretty lattice design on the sides in pastel colors. A shell border on the bottom and top edges. Across the top in pink icing done with a steady hand the words "Happy birthday goodgirl! One of the nicest, sweetest, bestest people in the whole wide world." No need for any garish roses but a few small tasteful flowers in a variety of pastel colors can be used. Perhaps a few of those new sparkler type candles. Ice cream would taste good with this cake too! Chocolate would compliment it well.

I was surprised we did not set of the fire alarms.LOL)
