Corvette Cake

This Corvette themed cake is made with a handmade gumpaste/fondant Corvette logo, checkered board design, racing strips, and a printed photo of the birthday man's prized Corvette! I created this one layer, whipped cream frosted “fast” cake by making all the decorations to fit the birthday man. I received a photograph of his beloved Corvette and printed it. I created a plaque out of gumpaste to glue the picture on. Unfortunately, this technique makes this accent inedible, but otherwise awesome : ) The checkered board and racing strips were very simple, I just rolled out black and white fondant/gumpaste (50/50) mixture and cut into the specified measurements. On the other hand, the Corvette logo was tedious, but well worth it in the end. It makes the cake (No pun intended) : ) Overall, the look of this cake would make any man proud of his "baby."

 
 



See, it is totally worth it : )
