CAKE!

My little guy is turning 3 this week and wanted a Cars themed birthday party.  I got all excited because that meant I got to bake and decorate a cake again!  I searched the Internet and found a cake that I thought I could actually create, gathered my supplies, and spent my last two nights in the kitchen baking, cutting, frosting, dying, decorating and wa-lah,  Luke's 3rd Birthday cake!  I can't wait for him to wake up in the morning to see it, he's going to be stoked! 




It was my first attempt at a two tier cake and with fondant.  I learned a bunch as I went but I think it turned out awesome.  The only piece that I bought was the candle, the rest I made from either fondant, frosting, or candy.  I used a picture of another cake as a guide but changed some things as I went.  I decorated a cake board then placed some of his Cars cars around the outside.  Ka-Chow!
