I made this cake (below) for my new friend, Laurie's, baby shower. She is having a baby boy! It was going to be a small gathering, very low-key. I wanted to make a cake that was fun and easy-going to match the occasion. This cake was inspired by a design I found on the internet. Of course, while making it, I immediately started singing Ernie's "tubby time" song (provided above).
I love rubber duckies, even now. I think I like them better than the real thing. I mean they always have a goofy smile. They seem happy that your are around, splashing in a tub with sudsy bubbles, not running away from you with their stubby little webbed feet and half flying back into the man-made pond they swim around in all day doing nothing but frolicking and feeding on hand-tossed bread crumbs!
Anyway, I digress. I also made cupcakes to match the cake. I usually try to have extra cupcakes on hand for those who did not RSVP or for the tiny tots.
You know I was thinking that this cake has two very good uses. First you eat it (obviously) and the kids can play with the duckies while you try to wash the cake from in their ears and hair! Great Job!
CUTE CAKE. I cannot EVEN believe you can make your own taco shells, nor would I ever try. I'm lazy basically!!! That taco looks to die for. I want it for my lunch. :)
