I have made this Thomas the Train’s Journey 5th Birthday Cake twice. Evan loved it so much for his 5th birthday, I made the same again for his 6th. His party was at The Miniature Railway Park at Eastbourne in Sussex UK.
I used:
6 sandwich tin sponges
10×4 Kitkats
Chocolate butter icing (Cement)
Apricot jam (glue)
Marzipan (sponge lining and decorations)
Ready to roll soft Icing
Colours
Sugar owl, rabbits, frogs and dog
Non edible train, track and children
A cake base large enough to take a wooden Thomas the tank engine circular track
The cake is a tunnel and scenery. The train trundles round the track until it is time to cut the cake.
My son wants this cake for his 3rd birthday, in just under 4 weeks. Do you have any more specific instructions on how to construct it? I’m not a baker, so I have no experience with special cakes at all. Any help would be appreciated.
Hello there. Your Thomas the train cake is fantastic. Do you have more pics I can look at that shows the detail a little more up close? Also can you tell me how you did the tunnel? Trying to make a tunnel from cake, but I want to make sure I do it right..Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
