Birthday cake!

Today I made a birthday cake for Lilah's first birthday! (OMG, I can't believe she is going to be one)

It was so much easier than I thought it would be. I purchased a "doll cake" pan from Wilton, and it came out great!

The icing didn't come out exactly the color I wanted it, but I still don't think it looked so bad. The cake is boxed yellow cake mix, and the frosting is a homemade buttercream. :)

This was my first real attempt at baking a "decorated" cake. I always just purchased cakes from the store for birthdays, but I think I may begin making the kids cakes. A homemade cake is so much better than a store bought one!! :)
