Pictured here are the two cakes we got for our son’s belated third birthday party.

Italians really do know how to make some of the most wonderful cakes in the world.  This tasty looking treats which we had made to order for our son’s party looked very impressive in the flesh.

Still, what price your child’s happiness? A rather high one, or so it would seem…
