75Th Birthday Cake Photo-- 5 Only on Cake Central

used the template posted by nefgaby. Modified it by using a 10 inch round for the bottom of the 5. Loaf pan for the top part, no carving, used it full length. Used the other parts of the 5 to fill in the top part of the five, under the horizontal part. For my hole, I used a 4.5 inch bowl. Doing the bottom border on the inside of the 5 at the top was really hard, I had to make the border on wax paper, then I let it harden in the oven -- just with the ovenlight on. Used a knife to place inside 5.

Its wonderful - and yes, thanks for sharing your techniques. It just sparkles and I can't imagine trying to pipe that!

Nice job. I made a cake in the shape of a 50 and it was difficult to pipe the border to say the least. I like your idea of piping and then adding after it hardens.
