Happy Birthday baby Jesus

I few years ago on Christmas I started a tradition of making a small birthday cake for baby Jesus. This year being my first with all that cake experience under my belt made me very excited. I had so many techniques to chose from - fondant or buttercream? shapes or flowers?

In the end I decided on a red velvet cake with peppermint buttercream filling and frosting, with poinsettia decorations.









Merry Christmas, everyone!
