This cake was created for the baby shower for a lady who did not know what sex the baby was. We needed the cake to be fun, but not gender specific. Most importantly, it needed to feed a bunch of people. Plus, doing the cake in blocks allowed for both chocolate cake and a non-chocolate option (in this case, orange chiffon). It was definitely a crowd pleaser.
