I was just wondering if anyone had any ideas I could use for the wheels on a train. I will be using the 3D locomotive train from Williams Sonoma, it has 9 cavaties in it.. so it will be like a little locomotive. Others here on CC have done this pan as well. The instructions on the insert are very basic WS suggested, and are made mostly of candy. I was thinking of using large fruit loops and dipping them in black royal.... do you all think this would work? This cake pan is very intricate and I know the detail is going to be crazy, so I am trying to think of an easy route for the wheels. I have used chocolate donuts for wheels on trucks, but this is much smaller, each cavity is equivilant to a cupcake, just shaped like a train locomotive.. any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
I did a carved train and used oreo cookies for wheels. Maybe you could use the mini oreos.
SUPER GREAT IDEA... how smart is that? Glad I asked, just ticked I didn't pick some up at Sam's earlier this week when my little bit wanted them... thanks so much! I will probably use this idea as I don't know if I have time for the royal to dry sufficiently on the cereal before tomorrow night!
The cake is finished.. wowowowow what a pain to decorate because it is so intricately detailed. I don't think my take on it did justice.. anyway, I used Wilton melts for the tires... didn't feel like braving the grocery for a last minute item on Superbowl day. Thanks to all who helped!
Great job on the train. I am glad you found something to work for the wheels!!
