For a Golfer

A co-worker who has ordered from me several times in the past wanted a cake to feed a small crown for a surprise party. The person it was for was in his seventies, served in three different branches of the military. He was in to golf, so they wanted a golf themes cake.

The cake was chocolate with chocolate butter cream icing. The writing and grass were regular butter cream icing. I used a hair/grass icing tip for the grass. It's a cool tip, because it covers a small area pretty quickly and you end us with this fuzzy look. Not pictured is a hole flag that I made for them to stick in once they got to their final destination. The flag was made from a bamboo skewer and a small piece of paper with a 1 on it.

I'm told that the birthday boy loved the cake and the surprise party. The cake lasted until the second day, since there was more than enough to go around. I'm told that some people had it with their coffee the next morning.
