Coolest Grand Piano Cake

I love this website and used it to spark my ideas. To make this grand piano cake I cut out cardboard in the shape of the cake with enough extra to allow for frosting. I then used 1/2″ dowel cut into 3 1/2″ pieces for each leg. My husband screwed the legs into the cardboard and painted them black with black spray paint.

I covered the base with wax paper where it would be touching the cake. I baked two 9×13 cake pans, one chocolate one white. I then layered them and cut out the piano shape. I cut off a section of the top layer for the keyboard. The bench is made out of left over cake pieces. The lid on the piano is made from cardboard with a piece of black construction paper glued to the bottom.

I frosted the lid to match the rest of the piano and used a kabob stick to hold it open. Then I finished everything with a nice coat of frosting! I made it for a close friend who is a very talented pianist.

  1. LOVE your Piano Cake!!!!
    I was asked to make one and wondered how you attached the piano lid to the piano base. Also what number tip did you use to frost the cake? Where the keys also frosting or fondant?
    Approx how long did it take to make?

    You did a great job!!
    I look forward to hearing from you.
