Thomas & Friends


We were asked to make a cake for the birthday party of a 3-yr-old Thomas & Friends fan. It was the first time making a cake for a child's party so we had fun with it!

The cake is a moist chocolate cake made from scratch with two layers inside each tier. Between the tiers, there is delicious royal icing and raspberries. Then, the whole thing was covered with a home made vanilla butter cream and decorated with fondant.

Thomas rolled around the cake while his friends, the conductor and Harold the Helicopter sat on the cake, enjoying the view.

Our little birthday boy loved it so much, he had to be convinced to let a knife *gasp* cut into it and be eaten.
