My son is going to be so happy!! I made him a Lightning McQueen cake!!!

[MosMom]

He is turning 4 tomorrow and he is having a Cars birthday party. I made him a Lightning McQueen cake and it turned out pretty good! It was really easy if anyone out there wants to try one. I just stacked two 13X9 cakes and carved his shape then iced him. I also sprinkled red sugar crystals to give him a sparkly look.

That came out wicked awesome!

 

[summerrluvv]

Love it! Awesome job!!

 

[disneynutt1225]

That looks great!

 

[momx3boys]

Great job!! My kids have to settle for store bought cakes.

 

[Aidensmom]

That looks great!

I made frosting that red last year for DS's Incredibles cake, let me warn you, don't let the frosting get on clothing! That dye stains and is hard to get out.

 

[MosMom]

It took 2 bottles of Wilton "Red Red" gel to get it that color. I did get it on my jean shorts and had to run to Walmart to pick up some more black gel because I was out. I looked like I had just killed someone.

 

[Mishetta]

KA - CHOW !!! That is some great lookin cake! Do you do cakes professionally? I'm lucky I can frost one, let alone make a car out of one! Very cool ~ I'm sure your DS will be so excited! Happy b-day to your DS!

It's all over your hands too, isn't it?

 

[MosMom]

Oh yea, hands and forearm...a little on my thigh....

Took a bath and my finger tips are still a tad red.

I'm very impressed! Subscribing to try this in October!

Did you happen to find the Sarge car? It's the last one I need to complete my son's car collection and it's up to $30 on eBay. NOT!!!

 

[MosMom]

Nope, I'm not sweating it though. They will restock eventually and we'll get it then. He has a couple generic army cars that he calls Sarge and seems fine with that for now.

Congrats on the great cake.

It looks "Ka Chow!"

If I find two... one is yours!

Great job!!!

 

[minkydog]

Great looking cake! Wait 'til the boys figure out they can paint their teeth red--they'll all look like vampires!

 

[Poohnatic]

shhhh, Minkydog, don't give them ideas!

That is one awesome looking cake. Seems a shame to cut it!

great job!

 

[Tink&SquirtsMom]

GREAT JOB!! I laughed when you said really easy though. It would NOT look like that if I tried. You obviously have some talent there, with the decorating. My ds turns 4 on Wed and he is getting a store bought POTC cake.
