The birthday cake for this weekend is going to be a double layer 8" round (Vanilla - because she's boring according to her mom) pool themed cake. I think I will use Kit Kats to encase the outside of the pool and then come up with fondant life preservers, beach balls and swimmers. It's a small party, so it won't be quite on the scale of the wedding cake, but I am looking forward to creative process. I did a beach cake about a year ago and it was a lot of fun.
