My children's school asked me to make a huge centerpiece cake for their fundraiser with a school theme. The whole room is decorated with school related things. I thought of a backpack cake with school paraphanalia around it, like ruler, pencil case, pencils, crayons, etc. Any other ideas? The event is next week (they called me a few nights ago) Need all brainstorming ideas thanks

This sounds like such a fun cake to make... especially being the center piece!!!

Here's a few ideas I found here on CC to help give inspiration!! Be sure to post pics when you are finished... I'm sure it will turn out great!!

I love your backpack idea! That would pertain to everyone there.
Here is a pic I like too. I wish I knew who made this as to give them credit.
