Birthday favour boxes

A friend's baby girl celebrated her first birthday last Saturday. I was asked to make pillow favour boxes and coordinate the colours with the party theme - white and blue. I also made the favours that went into the box: Chocolate Cake! 

I realized only much later, during a conversation with my friend, that neither he nor his wife had ever tasted anything I've baked and just went with their instincts that I'd do fine. I'm happy that they trusted me, but it's a pretty scary thought as well.  I'm so glad it all worked out!

Note to self: Samples, samples, samples... make sure your customers know what to expect.
