Downton Abbey - the cake version

I have a great love for television. It probably isn't the best thing to love but let's face it, I love my tv boyfriends. One of my latest loves has been Downton Abbey. Downton is my new fantastic soap opera type show but don't you dare judge me and this is why you cannot judge me. Downton is set in the early 1900's so it's okay that that plot is so ridiculous because A) they talk in English accents and B) it has a faint relation to and/or feeling of Jane Austen and Jane Austen books are classics, therefore there is nothing wrong with watching Downton Abbey. Justification - check! Haha! (Welcome to the ridiculous mind of Randi.) 

Anyways, what does this have to do with cakes you wonder. Well, let me tell you. I have decided to challenge myself this weekend. I've had a stressful week and it is time to destress by making another wonderful cake creation. So, this weekend I have decided to make a cake based on the ladies hats from Downton Abbey. Probably something along the lines of this: 


Yah.... It is going to be epic. Or a complete failure. But, now it is out in the blogosphere so it better be a success or I will be slightly embarrassed. Cross your fingers for me!
