My good friend, Amanda, is having a baby boy!
Her colors are yellow and gray, so we thought an elephant theme for the shower would be fun.
Even though making the gray icing made me think of a line from the movie Steel Magnolias, I still love the way this cake turned out!
What You Need:
Cake -
I used two 8" x 2" round layers
and two 5" x 2" round layers
I made my favorite Chocolate Cake Recipe (1 1/2 time the recipe)
Icing -
I made a double batch of Rich Vanilla Buttercream (SMBC)
I took 3 cups out for the yellow, and dyed the rest gray.
You will also need a piping bag and tip #104.
Elephant and Letter Decorations -
Fondant - colored gray (You only need about 4-6 oz. of fondant)
Rolling pin
Cut-outs: Elephant, petal or tear-drop & letters
