Childhood memories

Every one has that one story that immediately brings them back to being a kid.  For me, it is the Velveteen Rabbit because it was my mom's favorite growing up as well.  I had a cake this weekend inspired by Beatrix Potter.  The mom grew up loving her stories and is working on passing them down to her daughter now.  This cake was definitely inspired by a Marcia Marie cake and you can see her gorgeous work here 

Here is a closeup of the detail.

All of the characters were hand painted with food coloring and vodka.
