Sweet Jacelyn’s birthday party was going to be at a pony farm, so the cake was a horse, of course, of course. 
I started with an chocolate 11 x 15 sheet cake.
I made a horse template on the computer and sized it to fit the sheet cake.
Since the cake had been frozen overnight, it made cutting the shapes (mane shown here) a lot easier and less crumb-y.
Ta-Da!
This horse of a different color was PINK…
…with chocolate piped details, including the flowing mane.
The horse turned out pretty cutesy, but something just wasn’t right about his eye…
So I added a brown M&M to give this horsey a little more focus.
After picking up her cake, Jacelyn told her mom, “It’s too pretty. I’m not sure I want to cut it.” ha! Gotta love kids.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JACELYN!!

You’re just too awesome Abbi! That was a great job and clearly the fan club approves, since she didn’t want to cut the pretty horse!
