Oh, how beautiful! I'll take some of that! I admire anyone who has the patience to decorate a cake like that.
I love baking cakes, but I don't ever bother with decorating. Even for birthdays, I typically bake a sheet cake (my family definitely prefers my scratch-made ones rather than box cakes or store-bought), frost it in the pan, and throw some sprinkles and candles on it. When my kids were little, I used to put Legos or Playmobils on the cakes (rather than the cheap, throw-away plastic decorations). I did make a Thomas the Tank Engine cake one time (I still have the Thomas-shaped pan) for one birthday, but it took FOREVER to decorate it, and that black icing is a BEAR to clean up.
