The big 40



Today is a friend of ours 40th birthday! We are surprising her this evening with a small dinner party at a local "posh" Italian restaurant. I was going to go all black for her card, but I couldn't resist putting a little color in. I also had a ribbon that matched perfectly (even better in real life, the shimmer added a little more sheen in the picture)


Here is the cake I made her. 4 layer Vanilla with Raspberry filling. I was going to put it on a cute pedestal but since we are going to the restaurant with it, I figured foil covered cardboard was more durable. Picture came out a little dark but the fresh raspberries on top look delicious.
