Happy Birthday Dad!

Our family celebrated my dad's birthday yesterday. This is a guy who hates when his family make a big fuss over him. I've gotten to the point where I know better than to ask him what he can use or what he wants for his birthday. He just won't tell me!


Anyway, We love to celebrate him but he never allows it. This year, he made it pretty easy on us by calling his brother and sisters over for a Labor Day BBQ. Little did he know that we had other plans! After dinner, as we all sat around catching up and spending time together, I brought out his cake and we all sang happy birthday to him. What do you get the guy who never lets you get him anything? A cake in the shape of a present! I hope he enjoyed it! Happy Birthday to the best dad a girl can ask for!

Now for the details on the cake! This was a white almond cake with strawberry filling. Everything that you see in the picture was edible and made of fondant.
