Step 1: Make 1 rectangular cake.

Step 3: Bake 1 cake mix into three small loaf pans and put into freezer. The cakes are easier to maneuver when they’re frozen.

Step 4: Make Pudding. I used Butterscotch.

Step 5: Layer two small cakes with butterscotch between them.

Step 6: Use food coloring to turn the white frosting into a weird shade of pink.

Step 7: Frost the small cakes with that weird shade of pink frosting. Put the small cakes on the frosted rectangle cake.

Step 8: Cut a small hole in a corner of a small baggie. Fill it with icing.

Step 9: Attack the small cake with the icing bag.

Step 10: Pipe letters onto the cake and try not to write on a slant.

Step 11: Take third small cake out of the freezer and carve into what might resemble a shoe if you squint your eyes real hard. (Crumbs were coming off the cake pretty bad so I put one layer of frosting on the shoe and then froze the cake again. That way when I put the second layer of frosting on there weren’t any visible cake crumbs.)

Step 12: Put the shoe on the cake, go nuts with the icing bag and decide that no more damage can be made to it. This is when you know you’re done.

    The cake looks great. I hope that you had a good time, we wish that we could have been there and now knowing that the baby wouldn’t have come I wish that we had come down for the party and the yummy looking cake. Congrats on the house.
