My dad is into classic cars, so I knew immediately I wanted to make him an old convertible. I made this based on some pics of old Thunderbirds from the '50s. All is carved from cake, except the cardboard and foil windshield and the wheels, which were Oreo cookies that were shoved into place and iced. Cake was half yellow, half chocolate, and all was iced in buttercream that I was determined to get smooth. June 2008. TFL!
