Easter baking

Today I thought I'd make an Easter cake but not just any cake one like my mom used to make when we were kids. She always made this bunny head cake with licorice whiskers and jelly beans eyes with a bow tie and all. I decided to make a homemade strawberry cake with buttercream frosting. It took a little while to make since I used fresh strawberries,etc. but the result is nice minus the bow tie. Apparently, I missed the memo there is actually a diagram from like the 60's telling you exactly how to make this cake and it includes a bow time. No jelly beans to be found in Italy and licorice is super costly so I settled on some bubble gum balls I found and some pink icing. After making the cake my teammate Kelly and I decided to check out what other bunny cakes could be found online. She was wondering if this cake design was a popular and well known things. We saw some nice cakes but these took home top prie for awesomeness. Just couldn't resist sharing.

 This guy was quoted as my pride and joy and... I could see this on the top shelf in a bakery. hm?!?

                                                     um not so sure about what this is??

                                              Not sure when pigs came onto the Easter scene

However, those birds and flowers are really cute.

maybe just the colors and decoration went awry. the cake shape is great. 

This is my simple bunny. Not much to work with here for decorations.
