This was for an Easter party. I had just learned how to use the basket weave technique and wanted to make this with a pastel checkerboard cake. I really like the way it turned out.

I am most proud of the basket weave design. It is difficult to get right but the end results are so beautiful.

Take your time. Patience is key. If you rush through it you will not get good results.

That looks so lovely I wouldn't want to ruin it by eating it. It does look yummy though! My little girl would love this
