We went with a Lego theme this year. (no big surprise there!)
So a Lego cake it is...
Three yummy layers!
I made twisted ropes with red and blue fondant and used them to frame the words.
I molded colorful chocolate lego bricks to decorate the base of the cake.
Chocolate lego minifigures adorn the sides and front of the cake.
I used a silicone mold to make these little men and painted their faces with gel food coloring and a toothpick.
The dude with sunglasses is cute...
A cake can't help being bright and fun when Legos are the theme.

I do cakes as a hobby too. This is absolutely adorable. Must have been a lot of work. Great job!
ReplyDeleteSo super cute!!! This is way cool!
ReplyDeleteThanks for all the kind words! The cake wasn't as much work as cleaning up the messes my little ones made while I was busy "playing legos." But it was totally worth it. My son loved it! And, it was super cute that some of his friends (8 year old boys) asked for the recipe!
ReplyDeleteFun and cute!
