Christmas Cakes for Gifting

Last December, I decided to make cute little cakes for Lily's wonderful preschool teachers as Christmas gifts.  I thought it would be a unique and useful gift they could take home and enjoy with family.  These are 9" cakes, one layer each, iced with vanilla buttercream.  I chose cookie cutters to lightly imprint the top of the cake, then used that outline to pipe in the frosting and complete the design.  I hope her teachers enjoyed them!
