Hope it tasted good (that's the only important thing, imo)!<BR/><BR/>I agree with Ophelia: that inscription is waaaay too long, and should have gone on the card. Maybe the decorator is Scandinavian and was going for the horre vaccui/gripping beast feeling (where all space is filled with design elements).

Cake messages should be short and, no pun intended, sweet. Okay, pun intended.<BR/><BR/>There are so many free clipart images that could be assembled into a single image that could be used to screen a cute and unambiguously-limbed character in a beach scene on the cake... why does no one ever think of that? <BR/><BR/>That said, I have a friend who insists on doing all her family birthday cakes, and she insists on writing messages atop them with store-bought icing tubes meant for that purpose, and they always end up looking something like this...messy and weird.<BR/><BR/>I shouldn't be blogging with migraine.
