Grave Digger

Grave Digger on Cake Central

This was my son's cake for his 5th birthday....the one in fron is the cake, the one in back is his truck...I did a scale model of it per his request. It is all buttercream with fondant accents and lots of airbrushing! The wheels are rice krispy treats molded in a 6 inch pan and covered with fondant. Oh...there are fingerprints in the side because I didn't get a pic before the little kiddos started touching to see if it was real!

I am making a gravedigger cake for my nephew and am curious did the black buttercream icing taste ok? What brand and name of colors did you use, they are right on. I appreciate any tips! Thanks for your help!

The brand of colors I use is Americolor. THe green is electric green, but the black is airbrushed...because black buttercream is not very appealing. It becomes bitter.
