PixelatedPeacock+FollowToo Cute to Slice, But I Did DO you think it's real? That Totoro birthday cake had this super soft sponge and a creamy, not-too-sweet filling. The fondant was a little chewy, but the design was spot on. Took a bunch of photos before finally cutting into it. Tasted way better than it looked, which is saying something. #Share me food #TotoroTreats #Cake #Food Art40Share
