after that super stressful wedding cake, i swore i wasn’t going to make another cake anytime soon. then. i was hanging out with my old college roommate/teammate/friend and she asked if i would make a graduation cake for her youngest daughter and her friend, and of course i said yes.
it was a MASSIVE sheet cake. and she gave me full artistic license to make an “uno” themed cake. you know, the card game. i guess they play it a lot and are borderline obsessed.
so. here’s what i came up with.

i struggled a little with massive size of the layers, but it was fine in the end. and i had a tiny issue when one of my piping bags exploded and landed on the cake, but that was also cleaned up, and turned out fine. 🙂
anyways. i was also invited to the grad party, so i delivered the cake when we arrived and had the pleasure of watching the two girls reactions to the unveiling and it was so good.
