10" round with rasberry jam filling. Satin Ice fondant flavored w/ almond. This was my first attempt at a present cake, definitely need to work on my loops! LOL
I should have listened to all of you who said blocks were too hard to do. I will NEVER do them again! This was for a student who was having a baby shower and 50+ people were coming so I wanted something big but not terribly hard and to top it all off I way under priced it. In the end the Mommy to be LOVED the cake and I got some business out of it.
I used the wilton 11x14 cake cut it in half and sculpt ed it how I wanted it. Then I put the "bad parts" as my 5 yr old calls them on top and iced it all with B/C and the covered it in fondant. The tracks are twizzlers and are held in place with wire. The wheels are mini Oreos. This was a fun cake to make. My hubby helped me with the 50 cal. (whick is the gun on the front) The cannon is a Pepperidge Famr's Pirouette covered in fondant.
This cake was baked in the Pampered Chef mix and measure bowl and then I just cut it down. The icing is fondant theat I colored and squished together then rolled to the thickness I wanted. This was for my brother who turned 17. I found out 2 days after I made this cake how to NOT get pleats in the cake when using fondant!! Oh well he loved it!
I used the Soccer ball pan and the bottom cake is a 10'' round. The icing is fondant and the stitching and grass boarder are buttercream.
The "brim" of the hat is cardboard covered in fondant and the bronze helmet patch/shield is fondant w/ Tylos covering card stock paper. The shield is fondant mixed w/ tylos to make it hard. We had the local FD over to celebrate w/ ou bday boy and they LOVED it!! I loved making this cake and I don't say that often about a cake. Enjoy the pictures!
Thanks A TON to thecakemaker!! I baked a 10'' cake and used the soccer ball cake pan (the one that is just half of it by Wilton) and torted it. The "brim" of the hat is cardboard covered in fondant and the bronze helmet patch/shield holder is fondant w/ Tylos covering card stock paper. The shield is fondant mixed w/ tylos to make it hard. We had the local FD over to celebrate w/ ou bday boy and they LOVED it!! I loved making this cake and I don't say that often about a cake. Enjoy the pictures!
My son loves Superman so I had this pan from my gradmother and made him his Superman cake.
Our 1st son's birthday is the day after my husband's so thins year I surprised him with a cake for him(which he NEVER gets). He was so surprised he got choked up! He loved it. It is not great but he thought it was and that is all that matters.
My cousin was turning 16 and I surprised her with this cake. She is such a little priss and we always called her Marissa the Prissa so it just seemed perfect. She LOVED the cake! That was my first purse cake so I think I did ok.
This picture goes with the next one. It just shows the detail of the cake.
The cake was done with fondant on top of BC. The clothes are fondant and detailed with BC. The booties are BC as well. I did cookies as a favor and those are clothes pins. My husband took the pictures so they weren't the best! The next picture after this one is a close up if the clothes. I also made ruffle butt panties along with other baby clothes and those were a big hit! I had a lot of fun making this cake. I just need aLOT of help getting my fondant smooth at the bottom. Any advice???
