I recently purchased your Cook'n Recipe Software and love it! I have tried several other cookbook programs but found them unsatisfactory.

My main goal was to put my own recipes into a system that was easy and quick. I have put in about 20 so far, and I love it. It is so easy to use.

I have tried several of your recipes and they all have been wonderful!

Thank you!!

To prepare the gumdrop roses: Sprinkle waxed paper sheet with sugar; roll gumdrops into ovals, sprinkling with more sugar as needed; cut in half crosswise. Roll one of the halves at an angle to make a flower center. Wrap several halves around base for petals, pressing cut edges into base; trim excess from bottom.

To prepare the gumdrop leaves: Roll green gumdrops into ovals. Cut out leaf shapes. Sprinkle cut edges with sugar.

To prepare the frosting: While beating the frosting, tint with food color until a deep pink. Cover and set aside until ready to use.

To prepare the cakes: Level cake tops. Invert square cake and place on cake plate or board with one corner about 2 inches from edge. Cut round cake in half to make two semi-circles. Invert and place cut edges against two sides of the square cake to make a heart shape (A). Fasten cakes together with frosting, (If the edges of the heart are not even, trim the sides of the square cake.) Brush loose crumbs from surface of cake with a soft pastry brush. Smoothly frost all surfaces with frosting.

To decorate the cake: Before the frosting sets, arrange gumdrop flowers and leaves in an attractive pattern on top of cake. Use green decorating gel to pipe vines and tendrils around flowers. Use red decorating gel to pipe "I love you" on cake.

*Measure bottoms of pans for size of finished inverted cakes.
