Below you'll find a video showing the birthday cake that Laurie made for herself for her birthday party.  She had some help from one of her friends during the final decorating.  The cake inside is a carrot cake, but I'd call it more of a spiced carrot cake as its quite flavorful.  The critters are made out of fondant while the frosting is orange butter cream and the cake was encased in marzipan.  About 2/3rds of the bottom section fed about 20 people at the party.  We still have leftovers.
