Ombre Chevron Cake Tutorial
Ombre Chevron Cake 



On Tuesday a neighbor of mine asked me if I would PLEASE make a cake for her daughter's birthday today.  How could I say no?  My neighbor secretly re-did her daughter's room in bright green and pink while she was at school today and wanted the cake to match.  I really love it when all I get are the colors and then I can do whatever I want. 
The inside of the cake has pink and green cake layers.  The whole time I was baking it I really had no idea what I was going to do.  And then it hit me... Chevron.  And then it hit me again... Ombre Chevron.  For the flower I wasn't really going for a realistic rose,  I wanted it to look more like a large flower you would see on a headband or something.
