My other son's birthday is the same day as the Titanic struck the iceberg.
This being the 100th anniversary and all, he wanted a Titanic cake.
Here is the birth of a ship
My original concept was to place the cake board with cake on a carved cake dummy.
Once I carved a placed the cake on top of it, I thought it was too tall for what I was going for.
I hardly breathed when removing the cake from the cake dummy.
I was sure I would split it in half and end up changing the design to a sinking ship.
I held my breath, said a prayer, and all was well.
Not to shabby,
If I do say so myself.
My son was beyond excited with his cake
and
we managed to sink it anyway.
Life is short.
Eat dessert first!
