This was for Tristan's 1st "Dr. Suess themed birthday. We created a Cat in the Hat cake and Thing One & Thing 2 inspired cupcakes. At over a foot tall, this was the tallest cake that Whimsy Girls had made! It was 5 torted & stacked 6" cakes (that means 10 layers of cake!) We had a blast making something that was so different and a bit of a challenge! Making a cake that tall & narrow can be difficult, and the fact that the Cat in the Hat's hat is not supposed to be straight made this cake a whole new logistical challenge! We think we were able to pull it off with just enough "whimsy" to convey the "Seuss-ical" nature of the Cat In the Hat while maintaining the structural integrety needed to support a cake of this size! Tristans mom, Debbie, did a fantastic job on creating a Seuss wonderland in their backyard! We loved the tablescape!
