Little Miss Sunshine: The Cake

I know I already posted a photo of the cake but here is the final version.

Felicity did NOT like 'Happy Birthday' being sung to her.

But look how happy she is once she gets a taste of the cake.

  

Little Miss Sunshine: Decorations

Of course everything at Felicity's party was yellow.  

The plates, the cups, the straws, the streamers, the food and the clothing.

We made lots of paper dahlias to hang from the tents and ceilings.

Little Miss Sunshine: The Dessert Table

We had a very fun time planning the dessert table.  

The main aim was to make sure all the food was yellow to match the sunshine theme.

We offered the following choices:

gluten free vanilla cupcakes with buttercream icing

fruit platter of peaches, mangoes and pineapple
lemon jello jigglers (star shaped)
boxes of popcorn
various yellow candies (butter mints, lemon heads, lemon drops and m&ms)
lemonade

Little Miss Sunshine birthday cake

I had such fun making this 1st birthday cake for Little Miss Felicity!

And of course it was gluten free.

I purchased Duff branded fondant from Michaels (with 50% coupons) and it was surprisingly easy to work with.

Felicity loved eating the cake especially the lemon flavoured yellow fondant.

Valentines Box

Our Silhouette machine has been getting a workout this year.

Here was the creation that Andrew and Lucy devised for her valentines box for school.

The 3D heart decoration at the back has a heart shaped photo of Lucy hanging inside it.

The teacher was so impressed she showed it around to the other classes.
