I have been asked to make a cake for a Bay City Rollers (Scottish pop group from the 70s) fan who will be turning 50. It's not until June, but just wondering if anyone had any ideas on this...if any of you know who they are! icon_lol.gif

I know who they are - my sister used to listen to them when we where kids!

Maybe you could do a turntable with thier record on it or something....

They were one of my favorites back in the day! I'll see if I can find something for you.

If its for many people, I think ya should do a stacked cake with all the colors from their album cover...

Then ya could use wires and hang stars and mini records all over the cake...write the name of the band in the same font in candy melts and put them on the cake....maybe make some tiny rollerskates as well....

Just some ideas!

I remember them too but I also remember where or how they chose the name for their group. There was a roller derby team in San Francisco in the 50s when roller derby was just a big thing on television. They were called the Bay City Bombers. Could you do an edible image of one of their record albums?

Thanks everyone for the ideas! You've given me plenty to think about (the only thing I'd thought of so far is perhaps to have a tartan scarf (made of fondant) wrapped around the cake!

Keep the ideas coming...
