This special cake i made on my son Ali’s 7th Birthday.Thou It was on 19th April and i am late in posting this divine recipe of Chocolate Cake ,which is basically Martha Stwert recipe but its never too late :). I have covered this cake with fondant and my theme was Ali’s favorite , Dinosaur.
It was that day you were born,
The Day I first laid my eyes on you,
My throat constricted with emotion,
World was suddenly brand and new,
I felt blessed and happy and ecstatic,
All appeared afresh like drops of dew,
That magical moment and since then,
I’ve always loved and cherished You.
Happy Birthday to my Adorable son
