This Buzz Lightyear Cake was for my son’s (1 of twins) 4th birthday. Baking, building and icing the cakes are a huge effort between me (artist) and my husband (in construction)!
I used two 25cm ring cake pans and a big Pyrex glass bowl (test-bake this part beforehand if you are using a big bowl) for the space mobile. Nigella has a delicious buttermilk cake recipe which holds very well. I always use gel or powder colouring. The colours are much more vibrant.
I like printing and laminating parts of the cakes like in this case, the fins of the space mobile.
The cake looks great, the cake on the poster is an excellent idea! Thanks for the ideas!
I love it, looks great! And the design on the cake board- what a fabulous concept!! Truly awesome!
