Loved doing this cake even though time ran out and I did not get to do everything I had planned. Pattern on cake was made using a paper stencil from the scrap booking section that you can get for like .99 cents then dusted with crystal color dust. It is for a friends daughter, they are meeting today for the very first time in 24 years. I am so excited for them and their family as it will be the first time all the family will also ever be together so I am pleased I got to do something special for them.

The cake is a dark stout pound cake with pecans and is just to die for!
