What A Gamble!
14" round Roulette Wheel for a 30th birthday party with a Vegas/Casino theme. Okay, so the cake is still with me. LOL. I'm sure she would've loved it a little more if she wasn't trying to swindle me. Headed to the casino to donate a cake. LOL Oh, all fondant, carved cake
Oh WOW! Thank you for such nice words. I know I say it alot but it really does mean the world to me! I'm so thankful. I made a 14" round cake & got smaller pan (10") to draw a circle so I would know where to carve. I carved around it leaving cake in the center. I domed center piece a little so it would slant above the numbers. Covered in fondant, used ball tool to indent around 10" to make grooves, airbrushed inside black outside brown, cut red pieces, 2 green(no black), placed them on, traced in BC ...
I added the numbers with BC icing. All the pieces that are gold were painted with luster dust/vodka. I also spray painted the center and around with gold luster/vodka.The dots are piped on as well within the center piece & sprayed. Hope this helps anyone interested and thanks again you all! Oh yeah, I did ice the cake in between there and chilled before fondant LOL
WOW!! Who would have thought that it could be so life like? Great Job!!
Thank you so much!
When I first saw this picture, I thought it was a cake next to a real wheel! Fantastic job!
Hey there... that is a gorgeous cake... and did I miss the story that went with it?? I love all the detail, really great work~!
Going into my favorites, I will make #2 son one for his B/D, he loves to go to the casinos he loses all of the time but he still loves to go. I think this is a neat cake you did a really good job on it, great ideal. Looks real also. Thanks for sharing with us.
Heyyyyyyyyyy CakesbyLJ! :twisted: Now of course, there has to be a story. LOL Details at 8 LOL. Thank you all so much for the really kind comments. This person thought she would find a reason to try and get a discount & my DH wasn't having it...so now I have the cake and I'm not upset about it at all. No sweat..someone deserving will get it. Now to just find that person LOL
I have seen so many fantastic cakes, but this one tops it in the Casino catagory. Wow! I would love know what went into it. Amazing! Thank you for the inspiration.
I have never seen anything like this and I love it!!! Meka, you always impress me with your work. Another job well done...for the person who will appreciate it's true value. I'm with your DH...it's a casino cake, but no gambling on the prices!
