Phillies




My good friend Kelly's son asked if I could make his cake last year.  I would have loved to do it but since I live in VA and they live in NJ is was a little tricky.  We do go up to NJ a couple of times during the summer but it seems that the last few years we have either been there the week before or the week after Mason's bday.  This year the stars and planets aligned and I was going to be in NJ the week of his birthday.  So after a few different theme ideas Mason decided on baseball.  Knowing that the Phillies were his favorite I spent a little time perfecting the P to put on the cake.  Mason was great he knew exactly what he wanted.   One cake that was vanilla with chocolate filling and one that was chocolate with vanilla filling.  Easy peasy lemon squeezey.  The fun and interesting part was the fact that my mom's fridge does not in any way have room for a cake.  So it was back and forth to the firehouse to put the cake in the walk in.  I would love to have access to a fridge like that for all of my cakes.  I was really thrilled with how this turned out and I hope they were too.
