Aaand... the cake in question:




I stupidly asked my sister what she thought my niece would like, and after a while she came up with the idea of a cake like a train. Five hours, one minor break-down when I had the finished cake, but no idea whatsoever how to turn it into a train, a lot of inept cutting and improvising with chocolate glaze, and then I liked it for maybe 2.5 minutes, simply because of, oh, train! it actually looks like a train!, before starting to hate it again because it was so completely cakewreck-y. Good thing the niece is only three and has no standards when it comes to birthday cakes.

Eh, there's a reason I didn't post a close(r)-up picture. *g*

But I guess I really need to get my perfectionist streak under control... Thank you. :)
