Our Easter cake marked a couple of firsts for me.
- Basket weave - something I have put off for a long time...but quickly learned there is nothing to it. I would suggest to anyone new to decorating that is going to attempt a basket weave - crumb coat the cake in the same color you are going to make your basket in.
- Cereal Treats - I made the easter eggs out of cereal treats. Originally I was going to wrap the eggs in fondant and pipe decorations on them. However, I did not have any fondant premade in the fridge and I was far to lazy after finishing the basket weave. I just frosted them instead.
- Not taking more pictures of the finished cake.....I still can't believe that! Sheesh!
It was not what I had planned exactly, but the kids and guest liked it! It was a very festive centerpiece on the dinner table.
Thanks for stopping by again! I am really glad you are here sharing in this experience with me.
Until next time...
CHEERS!

I just love how the eggs were cereal treats! How cool to be able to separate those from the cake itself. Impressive!
It would have been much better had I wrapped them in fondant...I just got lazy.
