I had another recipe lined up to share here, but I just wanted to share this cake I made over the weekend for a friend’s son. Okay, so he’s more, actually, my boss, but whatever. Semantics. Anyhoo, his son turned two last week, and he (the little boy, not my boss) is currently obsessed with Thomas the Tank Engine (choo choo!), so I was asked if I could make a cake for roughly 50 people and in the theme.
Didn’t think I could do it until I did. You all know how scared I am of working with fondant! I was actually toying (heh heh) with the idea of sculpting a Thomas the Tank Engine out of cake, but with limited time on my hands… it was safest to just go with a toy to perch on top.

For now, enjoy the joyful pictures of Oli’s Twoo Twoo cake!
And if you would like to order a kid’s birthday cake, please email me at nabmac@gmail.com or ring me if you have my number. I would appreciate two weeks notice so I may plan it around my day job 🙂
Much love! Had so much fun at the birthday party, thanks Andrew & Serena for trusting me with your son’s birthday cake! Throwing in this pic of me on a giant revolving teddy bear lol
