Sword In The Stone

Sword In The Stone on Cake Central

I'm so bummed I didn't think to put the flash on! Every other event I've done got a studio-style photo for the cake... my son's birthday cake of course is the one that didn't! This was his cake from today. The "stone" was a collage of different cakes and mini cupcakes to get the rugged look of a rock. Covered in gray marble colored fondant, finished with super pearl to give it a marble look. Banner is also fondant. The sword was one of the ones passed out at his Knight in Shining Armor party.

What a great idea. May I ask how you served the cake then? Did you just peel off the fondant and pull out the cupcakes and stuff from underneath or was this a 'show' cake for the party?

godiva - he loved it! He sat and watched the whole thing get made..until I had to fondant then he went to play. When he came back and saw it finished he kept saying, "Mom, I love it, that's SO AWESOME!" crp7 - I just cut it from the outside and worked around it. Just to clarify there were only a few cupcakes. The whole cake was not made only from them. There were 2 whole cakes & 2 6in rounds in there as well.
