The Christmas Edition

So, cool fact. If you google Randalicious Cakes, my blog is the first thing to come up! Who knew!? I know, not that exciting but just humour me okay?? And yes, my American friends, I that is how we spell humour in Canada.

Moving on. So, this weekend we had a ward Christmas Party. (No, I'm not in a psych ward or anything, that's just what they call congregations in my church.) Somehow the Christmas party and the talent show got combined. So, I changed my cake making plans from making Van Gogh's Starry Night into making an ugly sweater. It's classier anyways. Haha!

I got the idea from Colette Peters, my new cake idol. She did a Father's Day cake that ended up on Pinterest so my roommate obviously found it. I was planning out the cake and brainstorming when it hit me. Nope, I'm not just going to do any old sweater, I'm going to make a cake that is the exact replica of the sweater I will be wearing!!!! I'm a genius and not even the slightest bit humble about it. Sorry... But not really.

So, that's exactly what I did. I pulled out one of my nasty Ecuador wool sweaters that I bought at the crazy market up there and I made a cake to match.

And now I shall show you pictures of it. Before that though, without further adieu, I need to give Jeff Bennett a shout out for making such a big deal about it. It made me feel quite loved :)
