Toot Toot... Train Cake


So my gorgeous nephew turned 3 in December. and although he is thoroughly enamoured by Ben 10 now, he is also enraptured by Thomas and anything train related... this has resulted in hours of me watching Thomas the Tank engine!! So here is the finished cake. kinda upset this is the only finished shot i took of it. mostly because it was boiling hot and the icing kept melting and i finished off decorating it in the garage (which is sooo the best place to take cake photos let alone decorate a cake!!) Also my inner perfectionist just was not happy with the colour of Thomas, the blue just didnt seem right for my liking. But he loved it! Which is the main point right?

This is Dan enjoying his cake.
He wanted to eat Thomas' face and the candle just had to go in the funnel!!
