So out of all the cakes I have made, this I think was the funnest one! My friend’s son was turning 3 and loved Thomas the Train so she asked me to make a cake. I surfed the net for a long time gathering ideas and threw a bunch of things together to create this … Read more
We have a weekly meeting that has become known as our Tuesday Train Wreck. Many of us were having birthdays in October and November. So I made this Homemade Thomas the Train Birthday Cake for all our Scorpio birthdays. There was a convenient picture of Mt. Rainier for a backdrop.
I was all set on having a Thomas cake for my son’s 3rd birthday since he is obsessed with the DVDs. I had instructions from the internet and everything. About two weeks before the party he decided he wanted a Henry cake (since Henry is number 3 and he is 3 – so much for … Read more
My friend asked me to make this Homemade Thomas the Train Birthday Cake for her son’s 2nd birthday and he loves Thomas. I researched a lot on this website to come up with some ideas.

The icing is a light cream cheese mousse, covered in fondant. Thomas the Train is a toy, but the rest of the cake is completely edible. The train tracks are … Read more

Then I trimmed off everything except an elbow shape. I used icing and toothpicks to stick two cakes together, so they would make one train … Read more
This is a Thomas birthday cake made for my nephew Tanners second birthday (thus, the number 2 on Thomas’ side rather than a 1). I really wanted to use a Wilton novelty shaped Thomas pan for the cake, but they have been retired and are selling for ridiculous amounts, even on eBay; and after considerable … Read more
I got the idea for a Thomas the tank cake from this website. I saw a cake someone else also made from Debbie Browns character cakes. I used the sponge cake recipe from the book. The book is no longer in print but I was able to order it off of Amazon for a decent … Read more
I made this Thomas cake for my nephews third birthday party and everyone thought it was the coolest cake ever. I made the Thomas Train using Wilton’s 3-D Choo Choo cake mold and the cars using basic loaf pans. I placed the whole thing on three 13″x19″ cake boards. The train tracks I made out … Read more
This train birthday cake was built from rectangular shapes cut out of a 1/4 sheet cake. Oreos were used for the wheels and placed underneath each car train to give it the look of being off the ground. Graham cracker crumbs were used as gravel around the train.
This Thomas the Tank cake was for my son’s second birthday. I got the idea from a friend’s cake book (can’t recall the name of it). I used a 13×9 glass pan and baked two boxes of prepared cake mix as the boxes called for. When the cake cooled, I placed the cake on cardboard … Read more
