Congra-TU-lations!

Today was Towson University's winter commencement. A proud mama commissioned me to make this cake for her son's graduation party. Making the letters look clean and sharp was a challenge, but I'm happy with how they turned out. One of the benefits of creating a sculpted cake is that I get to keep all the scraps. Now if you'll excuse me, I think I'll go have a snack...
