When the girls came over last weekend, I of course wanted to make a delicious dessert, and I automatically thought of red velvet cake! Being that red is already a girly color I added to the "theme" by coloring the icing pink and adding pearl sprinkles. The homemade cream cheese icing was delectable. At first, I was little upset because I couldn't cake on the icing as thick as I normally would like because there wasn't enough left, but it was pretty sweet so the amount was just right. This was my first time making a layered cake, so I definitely took my time. I prepped the cakes the night before and "dirty iced" them so I could leave them sit outside in the chilly PA weather. The next morning I put on the final layer of icing and pearl sprinkles and the end result was very tasty!
