elements, molecules, atoms....

A friend of mine, who is the Childrens Pastor at our church, and I were having breakfast one day. We were discussing a variety of different topics, and got on the topic of what we enjoy doing outside of work. I was mentioning my love for baking and decorating cakes. That week she emailed me and asked if I could make a cake for a meeting she was having for the volunteers as church. It needed to be a science themed. I was super excited, cause it was technically my first order. I had to go back to school for this one. Science was never a strong subject for me, so I was extremely thankful for google. Not sure if I wanted to make a specific shape or just have a tiered cake with many different items on it. So I opted for the the latter. I found a cool cake online and used it as a template. Instead of making regular pearls to surround the bottom I made it look like molecules. Added a few atoms, an explosion with green slim spilling on top, and a few beakers around the bottom. It was a fun one to make.
