Baby Dedication

I make cakes for birthdays and showers all the time, so I think it's fun when I get to make a cake for a different occasion. This cake was for a small family lunch after a baby dedication. I was asked to use soft colors and put a cross on it if possible. I wish I had taken a picture where you could see the side of the cake. I decorated the sides with pearl sprinkles which I didn't even know I had until I went looking through my sprinkles to see if I had anything in soft colors. I have so many sprinkles, but we'll save that for anther post. It was a lemon pound cake with vanilla butter cream frosting, and the customer must have been happy because she called a week later to order a birthday cake!
