Thank you cc without I really would have never been able to do this

11 x 15 double layer butter cake with chocolate buttercream filling
Mcqueen was a chocolate cake with chocolate buttercream and fonant, all decorations in fondant.

Also I made cookies and put them in little plastic bags two flags and one car and they were given as prizes for a few games we had.

thank you to Boonenati and her wonderful tutorial and to everyone who answered all my many many questions because I had no clue how I was going to make this cake.

Everyone at the party was in shock and my nephew kept the mcqueen cake all for himself but did not cut it at the party!!!

My family is Mexican so they are not really used to seeing cakes like these they could not believe I did this either

I don't know what kinda tip you want except do what you can in advance especially the wheels the have to be pretty dry or the cake will smush them also color your fondant in advance with every to do with this cake the last thing you need is your arm to hurt I know the feeling now.
