<span style="font-size:84">If this is in the wrong spot feel free to move it.</span><br><br><br><br>Today I did a beach-themed cake for one of my old teachers and her class. I didn't account for enough time, so a lot of the design ended up being ditched. The shells are real, but were soaked in soap for 16 hours and boiled twice for a total of 3 hours to rid them of anything.<br><br>I chose her last period class, since my younger brother and our best friend is in there. That, and I could make them carry have to supplies to the classroom and they couldn't object.

I had to substitute Life Savers for shell candy, I couldn't find any shark, fish, shell, or beach appropriate candy. I didn't have time to bake, cut, stack, etc. the sand castle.<br><br>It was a half sheet devils food cake plus an 8 inch and a 6 inch stacked on top. Total weight was somewhere between 7 and 9 pounds, without the shells. The frosting was a very thick fudge-like frosting. I actually needed it to be thinner but even adding more milk didn't loosen it up. <br><br>The entire class thought it was good though. Some described it as "rich", "really sweet", and that it "melts in your mouth". Maybe they were being nice, but eh. A lot of them asked for second pieces, and the entire cake was pretty much gone in 15 minutes.<br><br><br><br>So... Moving on. <br><br><span style="font-weight:bold">Is anyone here graduating from high school this year?</span> I know of two, but anyone else? <br><span style="font-size:67">I'm not specifically asking for your age, but if you feel this is inappropriate just let me know. I know people who have graduated HS anywhere from age 15 to 23.. Sadly 23 is actually true, but at least he graduated.</span><br><br>If you'd like to know why I'm asking feel free to send me a message or post here. <br><br><br><br><br>- Anastasia
