| Slice of Blue Vanilla Ice Cream Cake |
My youngest son turned 4 today. I labored hours upon hours, over the course of several days to make him a Bubble Guppies cake. For those of you who are not avid Nick Jr. fans, it is a very cute somewhat educational show about underwater mermaid/merman-like preschoolers. I made him a blue-colored vanilla ice cream cake with several gum-paste cake toppers. I am proud of how the cake turned out, but somewhat disappointed at the birthday boy's reaction. Of course he liked the cake, but he took maybe 4 bites and went off to play with his new presents. Sigh. I think I could have bought a supermarket cake and received the same reaction. I am posting this for all the other obsessive moms who will spend countless hours to create the best possible version of these characters for their little ones.
To my little guppy, I wish you a wonderful 4th birthday!
