Dear Pen Pal,

Dear Pen Pal,
Dear Pen Pal, Dear Pen Pal, Dear Pen Pal,

This cake is my enter under the Pen Pals Inspiration Challenge (CakeCentral). All the decorations are made with fondant and for the handwritten text I used food-safe ink pen. The text introduces myself and it says: Dear Pen Pal, Hi, My name is Sweet Janis, I live in Como, (Italy) a beautiful town on the lake. I have one kid, named Leonardo. How many people are in your family? In my spare time I like to read, travelling scuba diving and cake decorating. I started decorating in September 2011 for my son 1st birthday. I had never decorated a cake with fondant and was instantly bitten by the bug! I can’t wait for you to write back, your new friend, Sweet Janis
Hope you like it Xx
