Graduation 2011

Graduation Day! It fills the heart with mixed feelings -- fulfillment and sadness, anxiety and eagerness.

This was a graduation cake for my "niece."  I went back and forth between multiple cake ideas.  I decided to go with something simple and straightforward. 

 I did a white cake filled with chocolate mousse and strawberries.  I frosted the cake in a purple colored butter cream.  I added some white drop flowers with purple centers.  The graduation cap is made of cereal treats and covered in white fondant.  the tassel was made out of fondant cut into strips.
