Farmer Jack's Cake






I made this cake on June 4th for Jack, a little boy in my AWANA Cubbies class. He wanted a farm cake. both tiers (12 inch & 8 inch, 2 layers each) are covered in buttercreamfrosting. 
I made a little farm scene on the bottom tier with the tractors and animals and then had a scene with a pig splashing mud all over the top tier. I even made a piece of mud flying over the pig with wire.

  2. I started making the animals on Wednesday... the cake was for Saturday. I decorated the cake on Friday night... It basically was a piece together project by the time I got to it. I just made everything ahead of time!

  7. I will need time to come up with the most challenging theme your mind has ever imagined to really put you to the test! :-D

    You know what would be really cool...a sheet cake with two people playing tennis and a ball that moves!
