STORY TIME:
So...
One of my fav clients sent a pic of the most adorable lil cake topper that she ordered for her birthday girl (swipe β‘οΈ for a looksie). I usually design the birthday cakes around these cake toppers.
However, when I heard that the equally adorable birthday girl actually picked out a picture of a cake that she really liked...
well...
I kinda sorta broke my own "no copying pics of other cakes" rule and I kinda sorta ALMOST copied said cake that the most adorable birthday girl picked out because...
honestly, I don't know why I did... I just did, ok?
Don't judge me.
I've been making this kiddo's birthday cakes since she turned a year old. She just turned five. π
And I've known her momma since she was just a teeny bopper back in Washington.
So yeah.
I guess my little heart just melted when I heard she really liked a certain picture of a cake she found.
What can I say.
Imma sucker.
HOWEVER...
My cake was gonna be just a tad bit better.
Why you ask?
Because the little fishes on the inspo pic didn't have eyeballs.
for reals π
It really really REALLY bothered lil Aubrey that there were eyeball-less fishes on that cake
like WTF
She could not wrap her lil brain around WHY you would not give the fishies eyeballs. Everyone knows FISHIES HAVE EYEBALLS. Even a five year old knows that.
The sheer audacity I tell ya.
So yeah. My fishies were gonna have eyeballs.
Which means my cake was gonna be just a tad bit better.
cuz eyeballs
Just for Aubrey. π§‘
Cuz I'm her cake lady.
And I will always come through for her.
π
Now
Does this mean I'm gonna start copying pictures of other cakes for everyone else now?
No.
Full stop.
So don't even ask.
