Monopoly Cake

This cake was for an 11 year old boy. He wanted to use board games as his theme. So his mom had a great idea to make a Camopoly cake(his name is Cameron. It was so fun to make! And quite delicious if I do say so myself ;)
I made the game pieces, dice, cards and label beforehand out of fondant. The colors on the squares were fondant, but the lines were done with black Wilton frosting, along with the trains. It's not full size, I made it with a 12x12 square pan. So I had to pick and choose which squares to put on it.



It's been awhile since I did a cake, this was a good one to start up with. Not too terribly difficult, just time consuming. I have another coming up this weekend. I think this next one will be a challenge - stay tuned!

Bazinga Cake

This was a cake for my brothers birthday. We are all big fans of The Big Bang Theory.

Simple yellow cake with chocolate buttercream frosting(made with dark chocolate cocoa- making it heavenly) with "Bazinga! "carved out of fondant.
