One of the Brag Tag activities was decorate a cake. Clint thought it would be a great idea for them to decorate his birthday cake. He wanted a number 8 cake for his baptism so that is what we had for dessert. It turned out to be pretty perfect-- except he wanted red icing. He wasn't okay with pink icing and in order to use my cake decorating tools we'd have to make the icing and I can't get it to go red so he settled for blue. We made two round swirl cakes and placed them together to make the number 8. The boys spent a lot of time covering the cake with stars. It turned out great and they thought it was tons of fun. I was surprised how well they all did. I didn't get a photo of the finished product but they filled in all the gaps and it really looked nice. I would dare say that most people would have thought an adult did it. Fun new experience!
