Coolest Guitar Birthday Cake

I started to become interested in cake making after making a cake for my daughters’ 7th birthday (Snow White & the Seven Dwarfs). I then went on to make my youngest daughter’s christening cake, and was hooked from there.

This Guitar Birthday Cake was one of the first cakes I attempted for someone other than a family member, a work colleagues’ son.

I was a bit daunted at first but relish a challenge! I found a few images of an electric guitar on the internet to give me inspiration and ensure accuracy of detail.

The cake is made of Madeira sponge and carved to shape. I found this bit quite challenging. It’s then covered in fondant, painted with edible colors and sprayed with edible pearl food color.

I found the whole experience very rewarding, and whilst hard work, extremely satisfying. I’m a bit of a perfectionist but believe that if a job’s worth doing it’s worth doing properly.

Doing this cake has inspired me to make several more but this guitar cake remains one of my favorites.
