It’s Valentine’s Day.
Last week I shared what we plan to have for tonight’s special meal.
The piece de resistance is the Valentine cake.
Remember my inspiration?

I may not be the next Great Baker for Buddy Valastro, but hopefully my girls will think it’s pretty cool.
It looks so easy to do all kinds of fancy shmancy stuff until you have that piping bag in your hand and realize those loopy hearts are way harder than they look.
I took creative liberty and went with what any novice would do…
X’s and O’s.
Admittedly, I felt a little confident after whipping off those X’s and O’s.
The natural progression is to jump into cursive writing-right?
Ahem…I may have been a tad ambitious.
People train themselves in cake decorating, right?
I guess my” critics” will let me know what they think….Please, be kind girls!
{I’ll share a picture of the inside of the cake later. I didn’t have the heart (ha, no pun intended) to cut into before the girls could see it.}
