10th birthday cake

I wanted to create a "non-girly but still fun" cake to celebrate my daughter's 10th birthday.  She loves Haribo and as it was her first double digit birthday, I thought I would make a number 10 cake.  

The cake was a standard buttermilk cake which I cut into the 10 shape.  Then I added vanilla buttercream all around it. I was worried about getting this ready for the morning of the party, so I did a crumb layer of buttercream in advance.  On the morning of the party, I used strawberry lances as the edging (it took about 10 packs) and stuck them on with additional buttercream, then filled in with lots of Haribo.
