Cool Homemade Disney Cars Cake Using Wilton's Cruiser Pan

My son loves the Cars Movie and asked for a McQueen Cars cake. I searched the flat pans and didn’t like what I saw. So, I bought the Wilton’s Cruiser pan, baked the cake, took my son’s McQueen diecast car and set to work molding the cake with a knife into the shape of his current hero.

I filled in what details I could on the cake, using the diecast for a model and a #16 tip. I also used a premade black frosting decorator for any of the black lines needed, the tires and premade blue frosting for the eyes. Frosting was used to “glue” the spoiler on the back.

I think it turned out pretty good and my son loved it! I also used the no-taste red Wilton color for the red frosting.
