Angela took a cake decorating course this winter, and Aila's second birthday was a perfect opportunity to try out some of her new skills and equipment. Aila is fascinated by owls, so Angela wanted to make the perfect owl cake for her. Two weeks before Aila's birthday, Angela did a trial run to make sure that she had the basic proportions right, then she made the final owl cake for Aila's party. Keen observers will have noticed the final cake at the end of Aila's Second Year Video.

The one on the right looks like it has more chocolate on it, I choose that one! Nicely done Angela they look delicious and adorable!-- Susan at 10:48pm, Friday May 10, 2013 EST
I agree, the one on the right looks more owl like to me also. I think that Angela did a great job on the icing on both, better than my tries using an icing bag with attachments. Great job Angela! Your a great mom too!!-- Jeannie at 9:20pm, Saturday May 11, 2013 EST
The one on the left has sweet blue eyes-- Dad at 12:04pm, Tuesday May 14, 2013 EST
