Monster Truck Rally
My secretaries sons birthday cake. They wanted his favorite monster truck driving over cars. I made the smaller car and truck out of rice krispie treats covered with fondant so they would hold the weight of the monster truck made all of cake with cookie wheels on top without crushing the cars. It held really well. In hindsight I would have made the bottom cake square to fit everything better but I am still new at this.

This is the third cake I made for the office bake sale with proceeds going to childrens miracle network. Easy to make after doing the jungle cake. I became a cake decorating addict for a few months when I started using fondant last fall. Watched Duff on Ace of cakes to learn how. I've made 10 cakes now. With work getting busier now probably won't do any for awhile.

This is the second cake I made for the Childrens Hospital bake sale at my office. I found a similar picture in a cake book but the animals were flat cookies in it. I made the animals out of fondant and some rice krispie treats for the heavier bodies. I am new at decorating so I didn't know about gum paste. The cake was fun to make but tested my patience for sculpting animals. The center cake is 5 layers and iced with buttercream. Each animal has a fondant bandage representing boo boo's for childrens hosp.
