This is the cake that I made for Tarah’s 19th birthday. After chatting with her mom there was no clear theme so I made a few suggestions which led to Tarah sending me photos of cakes she liked. What stood out with all of them was rustic buttercream, ombre and not too busy.

A few firsts for me on this one as I’d never done ombre buttercream before and this was my first time making both peonies and ranunculus. I haven’t made many floral cakes and while it’s far from perfect, I am happy with how it turned out. I kept looking at it impressed that I had done it. Lol.

Tarah & her family loved it :-) Hope you all like it too!
