# 3, The purse cake!!

I was trying to decide what cake to do for Alexa for her birthday, then I remembered a birthday party Jakob went to where she had a purse cake. So I decide to try one. I think it turned out good. It could of been better if I had used fondant all over instead of butter cream, but I wanted people to actually want to eat the cake as well as thinking it looked nice so most of the cake is butter cream with some fondant add ons. Here is how it turned out.Everything on the cake is edible, even the nail polish and the lipstick( fondant painted with food coloring) except for the wire that is holding the fondant beads for the handle. Colin has been such a big help with all the cakes, he has been the cake shaper guy, on this one he was the wire guy. And last but certainly not least, he has been the taste tester to tell me if the frosting needs anything else, or if the cake is good!! Thanks babe. I love you! Here are a few pictures of Alexa enjoying her birthday. Enjoy
