I'm very happy with all 3 cakes, but my hand got tired on the star cake because the sections were too small to use the 3-star tip. I think in the future, I'll try an FBCT for something like the maple leaf on the Canada Day cake.

Independence Day!
Happy 4th of July!! I made 3 cakes for the holiday. Well, I started out making a star cake for my parents to take to their friends' 4th of July party, which they have annually. These friends happen to be from Montreal, so my mom and I decided on Friday night (the party was Saturday) that I should make them a small Canada Day cake as well. So I did. Since it was a small cake, I had extra batter and made it into a 1-layer 8" cake for us. I would have done cupcakes, but decided to do the cake because I've wanted to try the brush embroidery and writing on a cake, not just a practice board.
