Coolest Guitar Hero Birthday Cake 123
by Lucia B.

Homemade Guitar Hero Birthday Cake
This Guitar Hero Birthday Cake was created for a 13yr old boy. I had to get creative as he wasn't going to be impressed with something cutesy. He is a big fan of the video game "Guitar Hero", so my boyfriend suggested making a cake that looks like the guitar controller.
I used a spice cake and cream cheese frosting for this cake. I baked 2 9in rounds, one I carved into the body of the guitar, the other was used for the neck and headstock. I had the real thing nearby as a guide as I worked. I find a steak knife works well for carving cakes as it's small and give me lots of control.
I mixed black food coloring into one tub of frosting, and frosted the entire cake. I then mixed up small amounts of the various colors I needed and piped on the details.
For my efforts I got a "Now that is cool." A pretty big compliment from a teenage boy.
