OWL CAKE

Savannah has been obsessed with owls ever since last September.  She loves them.  I don't know why.  

So for her Birthday I had to make her an owl cake.  

Having never made a "shape" cake before, I enlisted the help of my good friend LeAnn.  She knows what she's doing.  She has 4 kids and has been making their cakes for years.  She was an amazing help.  

She had be bake a 9x13 and a round cake.  I used 2 cake mixes, and 3 cans of frosting.  

First we cut the cake to look like the shape of the owl. The ears are just the scraps from where we trimmed down the body.  

Then we made some light brown frosting for the head, and planned out the rest of the design.  

It was actually way easier than I thought it would be.  So here she is in all her glory!  Savannah's birthday owl cake!
