Here's a little cake I whipped up last week for my pal Nate (at the request of Mr. Matt Garretson). I thought the cake looked pretty good, considering my lack of experience with these kinds of decorations. So I used what I knew - stencils. Except I made my own. Check it:

Once the sprinkles were on, it was just a matter of placing the silver dragees on one-by-one with my increasingly-useful kitchen tweezers.

Done. The flavor was salted caramel and chocolate, like the one they have at Baked. I was told it was fully devoured by the end of the party, which no small feat (think 6 sticks of butter in one cake).

I've got more to do this week, so keep checking back!
