Happy 3rd Birthday, Justin!

My son is a huge Curious George fan. We have three PBS channels that run Curious George episodes and this is a good thing since it's his favorite cartoon by far. So, what better theme to use to inspire his birthday cake?

A month before my son's birthday a friend decorated a Curious George cake for her son who was turning 3. She is a great cake decorator. We've taken one cake decorating class together, but she has much more talent and patience than I do. She found her inspiration cake through a web search and posted photos of her cake online. I decided not to reinvent the wheel, but to duplicate her cake as best as I could.

But first things first. I wanted to try a new Banana Sour Cream cake recipe. George likes bananas, right? I made one layer according to the recipe found on the Kraft Food website. THe second layer I added mini chocolate chips to.
