60th Birthday Cake: Motorcycle Cake


For some reason, I can hear Steppenwolf in the background when I think of this cake... "Get your motor running, head out on the highway..."

This past weekend I made a special 60th birthday cake for a client of mine who has a nice shiny red and yellow Motorcycle. It really is so fun to recreate someone's special bike or car. I get so excited to see or hear their reaction to the creation.

This birthday cake was 4 layers of lemon cake with swiss meringue buttercream covered in fondant with handmade sugarpaste decorations.

That cake is awesome! Even though nothing surprises me anymore when it comes to your cakes and what you can create. You can just see the attitude in the woman on the bike! Love it!!!
