Our little Bella just had her 5th birthday party! How time flies...She was born in the year of the monkey, and just loves monkeys! (She was a monkey last Halloween, and her favourite blankie since she was a baby is from Auntie Ingrid, and has little monkeys all over it). So - of course, she had to have a monkey cake.
The body is banana chocolate chip (appropriate for little monkeys), and her head is chocolate (for other non-simian children...)
Bella helped me colour all the fondant (took a lot of kneading - especially that brown!), and do the flowers. I loved doing her little face and dress.
After a swift, painless decapitation, the girls at the party devoured the head in complete silence...Nothing like cake and ice cream to bring on peace and quiet!
Happy Birthday, Bella! We love you!!!
