I made a 2 tier heart shaped chocolate birthday cake (bottom pink), with the top heart (purple) smaller, and had a miniture china tea set placed around the edge. The cake was edged with pink and purple sparkly ribbons, and from the centre of the cake were red pink white and purple hearts on wires and more bows which was easy and very specatcular looking ! I used sparklers when it was time to sing happy birthday, followed by real candles due to popluar demand.
