Dump Truck Cake
I made this for my nephew's 1st birthday. Bottom is 9x13 and truck is carved from another 9x13 (a first for me). All BC except for road (fondant), tires (fondant covered rice krispie treats), and dirt (crushed choc. graham crackers). Although the truck didn't come out as I pictured in my head, I'm pretty pleased and I had a lot of fun with this. Suggestions for carving and icing shaped cakes are more than welcome...I'm still new and could use all the advice I can get! :-) TFL!
oooh, great job for a first time carving! what a good idea to use rice krispies as tires. i've done a few cake carvings myself. if you need some hints feel free to contact me. :P
I think you did wonderfully!! My dump truck didn't come out as I had pictured it either! You should be VERY pleased with yours!!
Thank you, rcs.
