Baking a Cake

It was Mindi Fest this past weekend in which Mindi celebrated her 30th birthday!  Woo hoo!  To celebrate the day, I baked her a cake!  I haven't baked and decorated a cake in a looooooong time.  So it did not turn out exactly as I had it planned out in my head, but it was still good.

Here's all the ingredients ready to go.

Zebra cake- take 1/3 cup of chocolate cake mix, pour 1/3 cup white cake mix on top- repeat until pan is full.

Used two pans.

Cake is baked!

I used a butter cream recipe for the frosting and made two layers on the bottom and top.

After placing a base layer of frosting on the cake, into the fridge to cool off!

The finished project ready for transport to Mindi's house.

What was left after the party and this is what I fed to kids at school.  Notice the nice zebra pattern!
