So it fell apart…creating those memories with dear son is worth more than a “perfectly created” cake.

I think your cake looks AWESOME and very Pirate Ship-like! I Sooo understand about it needing to be perfect. That’s just the Mama in us! I make them too and the better they taste, the more they fall apart…if you figure out a way to make them taste Great AND stay together please let me know!

I LIKE your cake! I feel your pain, too. I made a cupcake stand out of a glass plate and a glass candlestick then spray painted them turquoise. It looked gorgeous! Then I sprayed it with clear sealer and the paint bubbled and cracked and peeled off like old sunburn, it was horrible! Fixed it with an all over mod podged layer of crumpled tissue and acrylic paint and GOOD sealer, it came out fine in the end.

My first try with my pizza box birdie wreath was a terrible mess. Really really bad. At least you could eat the cake.
