yesterday i took a little break from card making to create this cake for a seventieth--yes 70th!--birthday party. the invitation featured a photo of a granny on a razor scooter, so as one of the dessert options/decorations, the customer wanted a scooter cake--how fun is that?! i'd never made one before, but having made other shape cakes, i was pretty sure i could figure something out. i only had a vague, blurry picture in my head when i was trying to think it through, but it came into focus pretty quickly once i started cutting the cake apart. i didn't leave enough time for a re-do, so i'm glad it worked! i think it would make a great cake for a child's birthday too--perhaps a wheel-y fun scooter-around-the-block party...
