Construction Site Cake

This colorful cake was made for a 3 year old's construction party. It's a two tier vanilla cake with strawberry and vanilla buttercream filling. Everything on this cake is edible, including the custom made Digger, Cement Mixer, Dump Truck and Bulldozer.

The safety cone cake topper is made from gumpaste and is completely edible. It stands 6" tall!

The vehicles are made from cereal treats and are covered and decorated in fondant.

The "dirt" is made from brown sugar and cookie crumbles, and the "rocks", "bricks" and "lumber" are made from fondant.

Dump Truck Cake

I feel like every time I complete a cake it becomes my new favorite. The same is true of my latest...this is a dump truck cake. The birthday boy specifically requested that it must be dumping at the top of the cake as well! The truck is made of out rice krispies treats, fondant and gumpaste. The cake is a yellow butter cake frosted in chocolate buttercream. The "sand" is brown sugar and the M&Ms were the special delivery.
