Mom's birthday - yellow and grey theme



Topaz is the birthstone for November so I chose a yellow theme for my Mom's 60th birthday dessert table. I think it is nice and bright and perfect for a party.




I also added a few horses because Mom is mad about them and had a trekking holiday for her present - I was asked at one point to settle an argument over whether the toppers were cows or hippos! I hope everyone else recognised they were horses.

This was my first large iced cake. I actually did two layers (the bigger one was a pain to ice) but forgot to take the dowel supports to construct it when I got to mom's so I just used the top layer on the table.

I made the yellow buttercream lemon flavour. The rest, and the biscuits, were vanilla.
