The books should be placed slightly misaligned so as to enhance the visibility.Graduation Caps CakeGraduation caps are an age old favorite when it comes to graduation cake ideas. These are extremely simple to make as any piece of circular cake can easily be converted into a graduation cap. One quick and easy idea is to use a chocolate base topped with a simple square piece of chocolate. Or else, you can make black frosting by adding black food color to chocolate frosting.

The top of the cake can also be made by melting black candies in a square pan and letting the paste solidify.Garduation Cake With College ThemeHigh school graduates are very enthusiastic about the college they will be joining.
