*Tutorial HERE!
I have been dreaming about this cake for about a month.
Dreaming of layers that went up and down instead of horizontally.
Dreaming of obscene amounts of delicate frosting roses.
Dreaming of a variety of flavors.
And finally, my dream has come true.
Normally I share recipes and techniques and design aspects and every detail I can think of sharing… and maybe I will do that if anyone cares to know. But for now, I just want to enjoy it.
Why?
Because tomorrow (Feb. 1st) is my birthday. And I wanted to make myself a cake! (thats me getting sassy with myself)
I just want to sit back, relax, and have a piece.
But I do wish I could share it with you.
Cause man oh man…
It. Is. Good. 
Soo beautiful! Please oh please share how to make this! Ive been wondering how to make a vertical layer cake for a while!
Happy Birthday!!!
And THIS is why you are a genius. I hope your birthday is full of joy and fun and blue skies in the midst of a gray winter. So grateful to call you my friend. (You are my friend, right?)
Yummy!
I would be more than happy to drive up there and “share” that with you! 
lol
Hope you have a fabulous day!!!
Oh my goodness! This is one of the most stunning cakes I have ever seen. How incredibly perfect would this be for a wedding!? I want to get married again so I can have a cake that looks like this… To my husband, of course.
