Angry Birds Birthday Cake (Amma’s Pastries) My daughter is a big fan of Angry Birds and we decided to present her an Angry Bird Cake for her 11th Birthday. We ordered it from Amma’s Pastries in HRBR Layout, Bangalore. The cake was delivered to us at no extra cost. The print on the Angry Birds Cake was perfect and I hope the colours are edible.   This design consumed 1.5 Kgs of pastry and the Ammas Pastry charges us Rs. 925 including delivery charges. That’s $12.3 when you convert into USD.
