Have I ever mentioned I love team work? Did not know this about myself but recently the benefits of team work have allowed me to graduate to a whole new level. This cake is an example of that.
One of my co-workers asked me to do a cake for her daughter's graduation from the University of North Carolina at Pembroke (UNCP). The basic instructions were black and gold icing (school colors) and it needed to serve 50 people. Then she handed me a picture. She liked the shape and the stack but not the design we needed to improvise on that. A day or so later I showed her a few ideas and she picked out the ones I liked too.
So the cake was designed with a two layer square cake, and a two layer round cake off center on the top. Then a sugar cookie stacked on top to look like a cap. The tassel was done with icing. We did stripes on the bottom and circles on the top in the various colors and sizes.
I understand that the graduate was happy with her cake (and happier with her diploma as it should be), and the party was a great celebration of this young lady's accomplishment.
