My FIL's 70th B'Day

It's my FIL's 70th birthday yesterday. We had a nice dinner with all the relatives at a restaurant in our hometown, Seremban. A cooling day with all the nice food.....I forgotten to take pictures for all the yummy food...*sigh*..:( But luckily I did some photo shooting for my cake before we left home..heehee! But the inside...*sigh*...again forgot!!

Anyway here's some pictures that I'll like to share...."贺寿蛋糕" for my FIL.
A combination of the lemon butter cake and my favourite chocolate cake into a 12x16" rectangle tin.*phew*!

The top....................

The side...............

Side border...............


and the 寿桃 (peaches)................
The peaches (寿桃) suppose made of baos but due to my failure of spraying the colours onto the baos and also limited time.......I did it with fondant at last..;p Luckily it still can stand on the cake although its not dry enough..;)

Cheers!!!
