2nd Birthday: Elmo Cakes

There has been a lot of 2nd birthday parties lately and the most popular request has been Sesame Street cakes!  In particular, Elmo!

This design was a 2-tier cake with Elmo popping out of the box.  The flavor was Chocolate Sour Cream with Vanilla Swiss Meringue Buttercream.
The client sent me over one of her photos which included the cute cookie monster cupcakes that she made.  She has her own blog called Crazy4Cupcakes.
Here is vanilla butter cake Elmo sitting with his 3 chocolate cake presents.

Lastly, a smaller Elmo sitting alongside a sugarpaste figure of the birthday girl.

    What a great job you did! These cakes are awesome! May I ask if you use rice crispy treats in any of the big Elmo cakes or just cake? I woul like to know how did you make Elmo's standing hands.
    Thank you Juanita

    There was a bit of a babyboom in 2008 - it was the year of the baby! So now they are all turning 2!
