Artist's comment from DA:When I started working on this I thought it would be a quick job. Well, what should I say… I was totally wrong, it took me 3:30 hours. Anyway, I hope you enjoy it and maybe even have some good use for it. The candle flames and the cutie mark are both on separate layers, so you can easily remove them or swap them out.
Pinkie: Look at all that creamy creamy frosting!
RD: Get away Pinkie, that's my cake, all mine!
Pinkie: You think you can handle that?
RD: Of course.
Bonus 1: This is especially for liamwhite1; I did not use powerstrokes at all this time but only Pattern Along Path together with Mutual Clipping.
Bonus 2: There are 21 candles on this cake. As this could pretty much match RD's age, I hereby claim this (21 years) her canon age. This pretty much matches fyre-flye's statement three years ago.
Call me stupid! A friend of mine just pointed out that the frosting layers are actually just copy-paste work, which means I could have saved a lot of time when making this. I should seriously analyze a screen better before starting to work…
