construction cake
I had a cake order this weekend for a little guy who loves construction - especially construction cones! His mom provided me with his favorite construction toy trucks and I included them in the design. I "excavated" out some of the cake and made a mound with it along with a little flag. I added a fondant road, some candy rocks and there you have it - an edible construction site!
A little sidebar I have to share... I still get nervous every time I deliver a cake. While driving, all I can think about is "I hope they like it, I hope they like it, etc." I always hope I have exceeded the clients expectations. Well, this delivery was awesome. Not only did they like it, but the mom even started crying! So sweet! She made me as happy as I made her. Thanks Kary!
Love it! I was on the other end when we picked up the construction cake designed for my friend, I was thinking "I hope she like it..." Did you see it?
