Yesterday, I spent all morning baking a birthday cake for my good friend vincent :D it was his birthday yesterday so Happy Birthday Vincent!
In the past, i would usually make a Victoria Sponge cake topped with whipped cream and fresh fruits but yesterday i decided to try out buttercream frosting to ice my cake for the very first time.
Here are a few pictures of what the finished product looked like from start to finish, hope you guys like it :)
A special thanks to my friend kerry, for helping me decorate the cake <3 <3 x

After spreading green buttercream frosting all over the cake, i have outlined the cake with blue buttercream using a star icing nozzle for a star/shell-like effect |
