Coolest Cars Cake

My nephew liked Veggie Tales and Cars so I decided to make a special cake for him. First time I made a cake from scratch. Used the internet for instructional videos and the recipes for the white cake, chocolate cake and Marshmallow Fondant. The Veggie Tales and the bleachers were partially Styrofoam and then covered with MM fondant. The base of the cake is a white cake with butter cream frosting and a chocolate cake with a chocolate frosting all covered with MM fondant I dyed green (I started with white fondant and used gel coloring to color everything).

The Cars cake was carved out of banana bread (layered with buttercream frosting) and covered in MM fondant. I did use some skewers to hold it all together. Also colored some buttercream frosting to hide the imperfections at the base and to make eyes on the car. Decided to put number 2 and my nephew’s name on the car instead of the original design.

To do this I first typed it out on the computer and printed it out on cardstock, cut it out and placed on rolled out fondant as a guide. Everything can be found on the internet as far as recipes and how to use fondant. The rest is just creativity and time. The wording was melted chocolate.
