Made to order

Each year we ask the kids what kind of cake they want for their birthday. Last week Ben had told me he wanted a chocolate cake with green icing and M&Ms.... I was on board with that.

Then yesterday he decided to elaborate a bit. What he really wanted was a chocolate cake with a ball of pudding in the middle, a green monster on the top with blue clouds, and black icing all around.

Here is what we came up with, minus the ball of pudding and black icing. And no I can't be submitted to cake wrecks because I am not a professional. =P



It was also getting late last night, we had the giggles already, and we really should have used some more icing on the sides.... But look how excited he was when he saw it.




Happy Birthday Ben!
