We Ate Cake

Yesterday was our sweet Charlotte's 3rd birthday!

Her big celebration was dinner with Cinderella,

but we did a small dinner and cake with friends yesterday. 

 I love to decorate cakes but haven't had too much success in the past.  This time I used this wonderful tutorial over on Prudent Baby.  I followed their directions exactly - for the icing as well as the cake - and I was really surprised with the turnout. 

Charlotte helped with the baking.

I finally did a successful crumb coat!  Thanks Prudent Baby!

I wanted it to look cinderella-ish without being obviously Cinderella. 

So the big C on top was for Charlotte and Cinderella.

She really loved it!

  Inside it was chocolate.  Yum.

So Happy Birthday Sweet Charlotte!

It seems to only get better.
