My thoughts:

We were going to purchase Matt's birthday cake at a bakery this twelvemonth together with then nosotros could focus on picking crabs together with non baking but nosotros realized that since his birthday is Memorial Day this twelvemonth together with the twenty-four hours earlier is a Sunday, both bakeries nosotros idea virtually ordering from would locomote closed. Since it is only the 2 of us, I ordered this fix of tiny cake pans together with made a teeny-tiny layer cake. It was a picayune tricky to figure out the proportions (and you lot powerfulness notice you lot bring a fleck of icing leftover but amend every bit good much than every bit good picayune right?) but basically it is a regular cake scaled downwards past times nearly 3/4.

This cake would also locomote perfect for a child's birthday (they could bring their ain cake all to themselves!) or fifty-fifty made inward multiples for an event. I'm form of looking forrard to making to a greater extent than tiny layer cakes downwards the line. It is only every bit good cute!
