Heart O' My Heart - Red 'n White V-Day Cake

Valentines Day is one of my favorite holidays. I have been fast at work making several homemade gifts for friends and family and displayed many of them here like the Cupid Cups for the kids, Quick Chewy Cuppa Cakesand my Valentine Cheese Cake for those really special people in my life.

I found myself with too much cake batter left over. Having also made a wedding cake for a friend last week I had about 3 pounds of Fondant left over and plenty of decorations, candy, icing and the like.

Not wanting to be wasteful I put my imagination to work and Wa-Lah now we have the Heart o' My Heart, Red 'n White V-Day Cake!

Now GoodHart there's a lot more to making a cake than the way it looks, think of the care and consideration you put into yours!

[Goodhart]

Yah, but the looks normally gets the votes....

Just one question, after viewing your baking skills I have to ask - are you single?
