🎂 Friday Fun | Birthday Party Edition

[Jessa_Lubiano]

I have made these super mario gable boxes, party hats, and a simple cake topper for someone who found me on facebook!

[MCVDFC]

I’ve only ever made one cake topper, for my in-laws 60th Diamond anniversary.
I didn’t get a photo though, unfortunately, as it was a last minute request. As soon as I finished making it, we left the house, and then they cut the cake as soon as they added the topper. I’ll see if someone else has a photo I can add.
This was also my first and only attempt at cutting cardstock, though I’m hoping to do more projects soon.

Very cute

[MCVDFC]

They look amazing.

Wow! I’ve seen so many beautiful birthday cake toppers and celebrations!

In our country, besides birthday cakes, we usually have lechon on the table—a long-standing tradition that continues to this day and is brought out whenever there’s a special occasion.

This was from my birthday back in 2018: my uncle roasted a pig, and it was so yummy and delicious—just like when we were in the Philippines!

[MCVDFC]

Wow, how do you cook something that size?

[SarahiRubio]

Wow! Beautiful

[SarahiRubio]

I always like to celebrate in family! Is the better!

For my birthdays I like Something simple and familiar but for my daugther some big as I can!

I try to do everything and at the final I finish to tired. Jajaj

I like to much eat cake and my cakes have to be beautiful and temathics!

This may was the most beautiful and special because I could have my cutting machine and I could make everthing for my Ollie’s 5th Birthday Party.

[SarahiRubio]

Congrats! Amazing!!!

[rinsky]

He was a retired machinist, and he customized a roaster/griller specifically for that pig. He built it in the CNC department at the company where we both worked. I can’t find a picture, but it looked similar to this—only his was better!

[MCVDFC]

That’s so cool. I thought it must have been spit roast, as we call that in UK. How long did it take to cook?

[MCVDFC]

Wow, such cute designs.

[rinsky]

Oh, no! For that size? Probably more than 16 hours. Need to be cooked slow, though.

[skyicreations]

Thank you!

[SarahiRubio]

Oww Thank you!

[SarahiRubio]

Anytime!

[MCVDFC]

Wow, looks so tasty though.

[Marisol_Villanueva]

Indeed… thank you so much for appreciating my design…

[timmytation]

That’s a big lechon the balat looks super lutong
