Gambling Cake

When my son was going to turn 7, he asked for a "gambling cake" of all things. I have no idea why he would want that, but I decided to see what I could find. I actually found a lot of things that worked for decorating a gambling cake, including chocolate playing cards and a plastic palm tree to make it look like Las Vegas. I bought a tiny deck of real cards and used them to decorate the plate around the cake.
