Those cakes are awesome. I bet she loved it.

I'm late on the thread, but for future reference, Wilton is a company to check out for cake decorating. I took two of three of their cake decorating classes at a local craft store. It was a Hobby Lobby. The last course was making wedding cakes.

They usually have a cake section in any craft store, and Walmart also carries their line in the craft department. Less selection at Walmart vs an actual craft store.

They also publish a yearbook every year with all sorts of cakes in them. I have never made one to the letter from the yearbook, but get ideas from it. A local library might even be able to get the book on the tax dollar for browsing.

My kids are spoiled in that I can make anything. One year for my daughter's b-day she was having a party at Build-a-Bear and wanted a bear cake. The cake bite the dusk on the floor last minute. We ended up with a store cake to carry to the party. I just told her that she got her own private cake at home then that she didn't have to share (the floor cake).
