Treasure Huntin'

I love pirates. I mean who wouldn't want to drink rum all day and look for treasure? I always enjoy making a pirate-themed cake. This one was for a co-worker. She sent me a bunch of cakes she liked and I just combined elements from them.

Arrr, Cakeys!

I don't know if I've said this before, but I am not a fan of half sheet cakes. They're big and heavy. My theory is that if you're having that many guests, get a smaller tiered cake and cupcakes. I think that looks better displayed than a big ol' cake. That being said, I won't turned down a half sheet cake order. haha I will turn down a full sheet cake order though. No way. TOO big!

Anyways, I got an order for a pirate-themed half sheet cake. The pirate theme made the half sheet not so bad.
