Too Much Sugar for One Week...

Three weeks ago I was in Seattle for a wedding for my friend, Jess and her husband, Daniel. Tonight they are having a get together for friends and other family here in Provo--so like a very informal reception. I thought I would practice my cake decorating skills some more, so I made a cake using their wedding colors--yellow and blue. Here is this finished product.

Side view...

Top! The green was sort of difficult, it was store bought stuff that I tried to use for Leigh's birthday--but the yellow and blue that I made worked perfectly.
