So this was my first experience using cake charms. And yes, there is such a thing! They are they little jewels that can be hung on the end of a cake wire to give a cake a kind of different and funky look. I kind of like them! Originally I was going to go super simple with this cake and just do pink fondant with brown ribbon and wires and cake charms. I did that, and felt like it was missing something. So enter the circles. I might have gone a little crazy with the circles, but oh well..it's still cute.
This cake happened to be a farewell cake for one of Nathan's coworkers, and she loved it. Mission accomplished!
