Subway Train Cake

Subway Train Cake on Cake Central

This one was so much harder than it looks, or than it should be. I was so meticulous about making sure all the slabs of cake were the exact same, and the edges were perfect and the thin layers of cake and buttercream were firm, but for some reason I'm still not sure I understand, the ends drooped and made this so very hard to fix. The ends started to bulge and sink and so all the straight edges I needed for the details looked off. I added those big slabs of black to the ends to cover all the sunken edges and corners but overall this one was a nightmare. This was also the first time I used luster dust and didn't realize how unforgiving that stuff is-- it shows EVERY little flaw and brush stroke. I'll never use it on such a large area again (I'll use the edible spray paint type metalics for sure).
