I just loved everything about creating this cake! It’s very tall, especially with the seal & ball topper. I matched the invitations & party decorations in the colors & design of the cake. My client had the idea of the seal on top of the circus tent balancing a ‘1’ . I ended up making a ball & putting a ‘1’ on it because the ‘1’ by itself wasn’t substantial enough.

The circus tent tier is Vanilla Cake with white chocolate buttercream filling & white chocolate ganache, for the bottom of the tent, & rice krispy treats covered with chocolate ganache for the top. The stripes are made of modeling chocolate. The middle tier is a dummy cake with fondant & modeling chocolate decor. The little 2D animals on that middle tier took me forever to do, cutting out allllll those tiny little pieces, but I loved the dimensional look it gave when they were done. The bottom tier is my favorite Caramel Apple Cake with Browned Butter Craramel filling, & covered in white chocolate ganache. .

There was also a matching buttercream smash cake & 40 tie-dyed rainbow-inside cupcakes,decorated with sprinkles & sugar glitter. And it was an AWESOME first birthday party!
