I think your idea is the better way to go. How did you get those candles to stand up around the plate?

Doing so usually sparks some creativity. Love those treat bags and that cake. Your idea was so much easier than making the entire dress out of frosting which is what I did when my daughter was little. I wish I had thought of that.

The treat bags are uber adorable and how fun to visit the Pumpkin Patch. I am quite amazed at the school having their dinner gala at Reagan Library. That is quite a special and amazing place. How fun you created the Doll Birthday Cake. My mother always made each daughter a very special Doll Birthday Cake. No Barbies for us back then but those cheap plastic dolls that have open and close eyelids. As kids we were always so surprised and felt very special that Mom had created cakes just for us.
