Last week, I mentioned I needed to make a Minecraft cake for my son’s birthday, and after searching Pinterest for ideas, I took the easy route. I ordered an edible picture online, and it was such a super fast way to decorate a cake, I admit, I will probably be doing it again in the future!
He loved it, and so it was a “win, win”!

Hi Margo – First of all… great cake! But I actually came over to express solidarity in not showing your child’s face. I do the smiley too. Kudos. Hugs, Holly
