Katie's 10th Birthday Cake & Orlando's 40th Birthday Cake

I wasn't quite ready to do another cake, but my niece asked me to make her one for her birthday.  Of course, I couldn't say no.  My niece and brother share the same birthday, and my sister asked if I would put one together for him also.  So... 2 cakes for Saturday August 14th.

Katie's 10th Birthday Cake:

Orlando's 40th Birthday Cake:

I had a little trouble with Orly's cake.  It was still warm when I put the second layer on and the cake was so moist it cracked.  My sister helped me to disguise it a little with gold shimmer dust, but you can still see it.  Oh well, all that matters is that he liked it and enjoyed eating it.
