My husband, Shane & I have been hosting a Financial Peace University Class at our church. I made this cake for our last FPU class which was on the 10th of August. I just want to give a little plug now for Dave Ramsey & his AWESOME financial course and the biblical principles that it is based upon. It has changed our marriage, our money management, our giving & our future. Once again, Shane and I have watched as family's lives are being changed by their new view of money and their new understanding that God has a plan for their lives. For Shane and I, this class has been a life saver. On August 7th, Shane and l celebrated our 12th Anniversary. Over the course of the last 11 years we struggled to come up with a financial plan for our family. Living paycheck to paycheck, with no savings was normal for us and it looked like most others we know were in the same boat. The idea that we needed a credit card to live or always having a car payment was somehow in our heads that this is the way of life. When we started taking the class last September we quickly discovered this was the class that should have been taught in High School before we got married. Today after taking the course once and hosting twice, we have paid all of our debit ( around $20,000) (with the exception of our home), cut up the credit cards, and saved up almost two and a half months of savings.
This cake is a 10inch almond cake with homemade buttercream frosting & marshmallow frosting. The coins are chocolate coins that I purchased from Walmart.
