Gender Reveal Cake

This was a cake for a gender reveal party an expectant mom was having.  The color of the frosting inside was to reveal whether the baby was a boy or a girl.

This cake was a vanilla cake and I made pink frosting based on the results of her ultrasound.  This was my first large bow like this.  I made it a couple days in advance and used bits of paper towel in each bit to allow it to dry in the right shape.  It worked!  

I glued fondant circles on the cake board to give it some added detail.

I was really happy with this cake!  What a great way to find out what you are having!!

This is what the cake looked like before all the decorations.  My first square fondant cake....
