Airplane Birthday Cake!

Wow, what a weekend I had! The weekend was actually so busy that by the time I sat down on Sunday night to write my post, I fell asleep on my computer before any of the pictures had a chance to download! So I apologize for the delay, I hope you’ll think it was worth the wait!Airplane Birthday Cake-11

The creative inspiration for the cake came solely from the invitation that was sent to the guest. I really wanted the topper on this cake to be the stand out! Here’s what the invitation looked like so you can compare!

This cake was a three tiered vanilla cake with chocolate butter cream. The tier sizes were 6”, 8”, and 10” and should serve just over 50 people!  As well the airplane and pilot were totally edible. The Pilot was modeling chocolate while the airplane was Rice Krispy treats coated in modeling chocolate and then covered with fondant.

Definitely one of my favorite cakes to date!

Sorry about the delay on posts recently. I’m baking so much I can’t write! But don’t worry I have a batch of GREAT triathlon cookies coming up next. Stay tuned for their debut!
