Pirate Ship
This cake used three 10"x10" madeira cakes stacked and carved - for thirty 6yo boys! Sugarpaste everywhere, except the pirates and the sails. It was a nightmare - it was so hot the brown sugarpaste woudn't harden! Used lots of ideas from this site - the cannons, the sails, the anchor, the sharks...this site is a treasure chest...:)
unbelievable! Great work!
Wow! I love the detail in this cake! Good job on the deck planks...the whole cake is awesome.

Great work you did a wonderful job! Where did you get the little pirates?
all I can say is wow!

WOW!!! your cakes are all great and wonderful. So creative! They are all just lovely.
beautiful job!
awesome job
wow I want to make a cake like this for my nephew who will be turning 4, what did you use for the railing and the sides of the boat?
Thank you for your kind comments! I found the pirates in a cake decorating shop (I'm in the UK) The railing and sides are brown sugarpaste. They use a lot of cocoa in it to get the brown colour so it tastes quite chocolatey.
You really did your homework--this turned out great...hope mine does
Thank you! The floorboards were just a some light brown sugarpaste mixed with white, rolled out and indented with a ruler to look like planks.
Beautifully done! Attention to detail! Awesome!
Love this cake. My husband challenged me to make a pirate ship cake for our soon to be nine year old son, but I have no clue how to. Please help. Thanks.
Great job!! I am making a pirate ship cake TOMORROW and am wondering if you can PM me and tell me how you stacked the cakes (are there dowels in there?) Thanks so much !!!!!
Awesome!!! How did you do the floorboards of the deck?
Wow...looks more toy than a cake. Good work!
I love this boat. A job well done.
Wow, this is exactly what i was looking for to make for my dad!
wow that is really fabulous!
Wow!! How did you cut out the tiers on the decking??
The tiers were not cut, it was different layers. I used Madeira cake, so it kept the sharp corners easily.
Wow!! That's some fantastic work!
Absolutely gorgeous. I LOVE your work. Do you have the recipe for the sugarpaste? If so, may you please e-mail it to me? Thanks! [email protected]
This is fantastic - what great imagination - could you give details on how to make sugarpaste
Thank you Raynuha! I got lots of ideas from this site, and the sugarpaste is shop bought. It is also called fondant.
This is fantastic! To favs it goes for future inspiration! Love the water. Love it all!
You "WOWED" my boys, 8 yo and 6 yo, and me!
