When Anya turned SIX years old!
Anya turned SIX today, and we had a little celebration yesterday at Sunday School AND another one at her school today.
And, I went ahead with my ‘decision’ to try and make her birthday cakes this year!
[Two weeks ago, I wrote a post on my first ‘make a cake’ attempt, read about it HERE]
Anyway, I’ll share MORE photos and how it all went SOON.
For now, here’re two photos of Anya and her humble little ‘Strawberry Shortcake’ birthday cake she had on Sunday.
…
From what I saw, she was a very happy little six year old girl that day *smile*

Andrea:
Thanks!
I’ll share a little more about steaming the cake in this coming week.
I know Anya was very happy that we made our own cake for her this year … It felt really rewarding for me too (and I think I’ll start making our own bday cakes from now on … ๐
Claire:
THANKS! ๐
and yes … the cake was btw … steamed! ๐
Ya love those tiny Strawberry shortcake figurines too!
You did good! SO cute!! It looks like it tasted delicious as well. Would love to know how to steam a cake. I’m sure Anya will remember this special cake her mommy made forever. Way to go, Mom!!
Oh you did NOT make this cake!! It is awesome, Leonny! I can’t believe a steamed cake could look that good. You are very mutli-talented!
PS. Love the strawberry shortcake. Was a huge fan of SSC as a child…
Nancy:

Oh wow…that’s a fabulous looking cake that u have made! Been wondering if I should bake for Kyle’s birthday next week, but its really too much work.
Oh my! Guess I must learn how to bake a cake. Maybe try it for Caleb birth in April. Of course with my Sister-in-law help, she’s a pastry chef:p
