Snake Cake
My niece is a huge reptile and animal lover, but her favorite are snakes. The last two years in a row she has asked for a snake cake for her birthday. This is last years snake. I cut it out in the snake shape of a 9x13 cake. I sprayed green icing around the bottom of the snake for the "grass", iced the snake with light chocolate icing, then piped on the design with darker chocolate icing. For the eyes I used brown M-n-M's and the tongue was made out of a piece of twisty red licorice.

Thomas The Train
On this one I did two 9x13 cakes and put them together. Iced the whole thing in chocolate icing. Added the track and train station and trains and then used green icing and piped on flowers and "grass" around the track and around the bottom of the cake. I kind of cheated by using the toys, but it is a great idea when doing it for a kids, in this case a nephew, who then gets the toys as gifts to be played with later. He LOVED it!!
