My Fondant Train Cake…I am proud of it!

I hope you will share!

My son turned 2 a couple weeks ago and is way into trains.  I had to make his cake and I found the most awesome pan on amazon. It is a train muffin pan. How cool is this?

It is a muffin pan and worked GREAT! (picture of full cake at the end of post of course)

Anyway, I wanted to make a chocolate cake but knew that this train would be a lot cuter decorated with a white or yellow cake so I made the muffin pan a yellow cake.

Go to page 2 to read the rest of the post and see the cake!I then made four chocolate cake mixes and layered them. I made homemade butter cream frosting for the inside and the outside of the cake. I was going to do green fondant and so I needed the butter cream frosting to make it stick. I then used brown sugar to make the dirt part of the train track and black licorice to make the track.

I then decorated the the train pieces, added some blue fondant for the water, and made a yellow fondant duck to put in the water.

I wanted the green to look more like raised grass so I colored some butter cream frosting, green, and started adding it with a tip. It started to melt so you can see in the front, the melting part. Oh well.

Anyway, here is the finished product, I thought it turned out great and everyone seemed to enjoy it a lot!

 

 

This cake took me about 3 hours to decorate but so worth it. And it saves me a ton of money from buying cakes!

Have a great day!
