Gender Reveal Cake

For weeks I anxiously awaited last Wednesday, the day that I would receive a sealed envelope from Tessa with the gender of her little baby. 

My assignment: to bake a cake that would reveal the gender of her baby once the cake was cut.

Oh. And to keep the gender a secret. From everyone! 

Tessa's request was to make it as natural as possible, without artificial dyes. To do this, she asked that if she was having a girl that the cake be made out of strawberries. If she was having a boy, the cake would be blueberry. 

Tessa added a bunting cake topper that she made herself. I fell in love with it!

It was so much fun to be part of this event and now I'm even more excited to meet the little man when he arrives this fall! Check out Tessa's blogpost for the party, found here.
