This is the cake I made for Matthew and Henry Lavinder's 5th birthday. They didn't exactly agree on a single cake idea, so I made a reversible cake. I suppose I could have simply made two cakes, but that didn't sound as interesting to me. There were some cake-astrophies along the way, but it turned out fine in the end. The boys seemed to like it-- the chocolate buildings in particular were a big hit. They were supposed to be very cool comic book style buildings made out of royal icing, but they fell on the floor and broke into a million pieces. The chocolate buildings were an emergency solution and certainly a tastier one. Happy Birthday boys.
