They are all the favorite things of Doug, for whom I created a birthday cake today. His wife sent me that rather motley assortment of items, threw in UGA and the mountains for good measure, and asked if I could do something with it.
I had just recently seen a cake similar to this on CakeCentral (go there some day and try to not spend 3 hours. Just try! And then go to CakeWrecks and laugh until you cry!), and was dying to try it. Wendy, Doug's wife, was up for anything, so I gave it a go.
I. LOVE. THIS. CAKE!

This cake is a surprise for Doug, and I hope he loves it! Happy birthday!
Marble cake, cookies-and-cream filling, buttercream with fondant accents. First time with a technique known as "spiral carving" to make the path.
