Last year I made Megan's Birthday Cake, a small 6" red velvet cake with simple daisy flowers and a monogrammed 'M' on the front. This year her boyfriend asked me to make a large two tiered cake that they were taking to Vegas to celebrate her birthday! I was more than thrilled, and Raul was a huge help describing his idea for the design and what flavors she wanted in the cake. The best part? She had no idea! Megan has a gorgeous Bengal Cat named Lola and is obsessed with her Leopard Print! So immediately we knew that the cake would be decked out in the design. Raul requested that we incorporate some dark red, another one of Megan's favorites. I added a large dark red fondant flower on top of the cake, and decorated around each of the bases with a twisted red fondant rope that gave a great 'Pop' of color throughout! I also added 'MEGAN' along the side in a circus/carnival-type font in black (The 'M' was lined with red polka dots to make it stand out!) and the whole name really stood out against all the red and brown hues. Megan and Raul loved the cake that he ordered! Happy Happy (now belated) Birthday Hun! Can't wait to make your cake next year!
