Robban's Over The Hill Cake

Robban's Over The Hill Cake on Cake Central

Cake for a man turning 40. Wife wanted over the hill theme. Cake is Finnish recipe since he comes from Finland. Thanks to Jan H and Jenni (aka karurislapsi) for the recipe ideas. Each cake is 4 layers filled with whipped cream, strawberries and pineapple. Loved the cake posted by rstml, so TRIED to duplicate her ideas- thanks for the inspiration! Fun to include stuff like college logo, palm trees (CA), buckeye trees (now live here in OH), kids as exit signs and an old man hanging on in back!

Hey Elvis...."thank you...thank you very much"! (Sorry, I couldn't resist!) Forgot to add that upon delivery I added coarse brown sugar crystals around base as sand, to "fill in around decorations". I should upload a picture of the back-. The little guy hanging on to the back is kinda funny (He was at the 90 mph speed limit sign! LOL!) Honoree designs billboards for a living, so wife bought topper at hobby store and said - "make a cake around this".
