Squiggly Heart and Open Face

I love it when clients give me free reign on designing their cake. It also helps when clients have a VERY CLEAR idea of their design, as is the case with this next cake from my favorite cake family from across the street. B is turning 6 years old, here is her drawing she did with mom:

It couldn't be any clearer! Orange ribbon-like squiggles, green diamonds clustered at the bottom and a few throughout, pink and purple little hearts, with a base color of pink fondant. So, here's the cake, how did I do?

I think I did ok... What do you think?
A friend found it rare that such a young person could be so clear in her instructions. Being an educator of young children myself, I think the only limit these little humans have is us adults telling them that it can't be done, or telling them how to do it, and not giving them the space to explore! I can confidently say this is the awesomest original design of a cake that I've ever made!
little hearts, diamonds, and squiggly ribbons for the cake
tiny fondant cutters made out of the edge of a tea light candle holder.
On another note, it was also MY birthday! I turned 34 (does that mean mid-30's?), and Buu made ME a cake! (Talk about giving the space for people to explore) He ended up making just half a box of cake mix, so here I am on Chu On Cakes presenting the first ever, open-faced cake:
open-faced chocolate cake with strawberries, yum!!
Happy 34! enjoying some of that open-faced cake
Buu and I, with a good friend of mine, and my Mama, also went to Espetus in SF - where good looking men offer you hunks of scrumptious meat!
