Here it is . . .

the recipe you've all been waiting for. :) I'm sure not many of you have the need for a sheep cake, but I thought it was cute for a first birthday party. I'm going to make it again for her actual birthday, the theme will be "Happy birthday to ewe!" I know, so clever!! Isabella actually baa-ed when she saw the cake the other day. So here it is, I changed it a little bit by adding pink to make it more "girly". I also used this recipe for the cake, which I highly recommend. They also have a cow and pig cake on that website which are very cute.

A couple of funny things about the cake . . .

When I was making it, my sister looked at the picture and thought the sheep was laying on it's back with all four feet up in the air, she thought the ears were feet. She thought it was much cuter once I explained it to her.

When I told my 8 year old cousin we were having a sheep cake, he got a terrified look on his face. He thought it was a cake made with lamb meat not a cake that looks like a sheep. Gross!

Awesome cake! I always first look at a recipe to see if it has egg whites -- 16 here! That's a lot of work (and a lot of rash for someone I know)!
