    Thanks so much! I just make special cakes for my sons birthdays, but of course, they asked me to one for my dad, and it's always funny, b/c when they know it's cake time, they all get excited to see what I came up with. (one of my sisters actually peeked at it in my car 'cause she couldn't resist!):laugh: :laugh:
    I would take about an hour or so at night, and make a decoration, and if I had a spare moment, I do one, then of course I only had 1 pan that would make that shape, so I had to wait for one to cook, cool, take it out, before I could start the other one! so overall, it took me around (including all the waiting time!) 7 hours?
    Of course, not my moms 80th is in June, gotta start thinking now, what to do for hers!

    My Dad is turning 80 in May and I can tell you if I make a cake it is NOT going to turn out like that. :noway: Usually it comes out tasting really good and looking really bad (which is ok, I guess!) :laugh:

    Lucky, that's just b/c I only had one pan to work with:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: , so that was baking time included! (which was 45 min., each time) plus cooling, crumb coating, cooling again, then icing, etc!
