Cross

This cake was requested by the lady who received the Clarinda birthday cake. Oh wait, that would be Clarinda. She has a bible study group and they wanted a cross cake for their evening group to eat during their meeting. They had definite ideas about what they wanted on the cake, which I usually like. I offered up some decorating ideas to make it look more impressive. They wanted the glitter and wording on top, along with the scalloped border and the beads on the top. I offered to put lace on the sides, but as I started decorating the cake, I thought that would make it look a little gaudy, so I left that part off. I thought it turned out pretty well without it. To get the wording to cross in the middle, I had to slant the words a little. It worked out, but in retrospect, I should have slanted the "Lords" from low to high so it wouldn't look like it was coming down from the "King" on the top part of the cross. Oh well. They liked it, and that's all that really mattters.
