Hi Everyone!

My 6 year old son has asked me to make him a Phantom of the Opera cake for his 7th birthday in April.

I took him to see the show on Broadway and he has completely become obsessed. I want to make him a cake that will blow everyone away. I already have a few ideas but I was wondering if anyone has attempted to make this sort of cake or might have any ideas.

Any help or suggestions would be very much appreciated.

Thanks,
Matt
