This Homemade Toys Story 3 Birthday Cake was my first time making a homemade birthday cake, and I wanted it to be really special for my son’s 3rd birthday since he LOVES Toy Story! I made a white cake with a delicious lemon filling and cream cheese frosting. Some of the decorations were made from marshmallow fondant and others were store bought figurines.
The bottom layer was a 1/4 sheet that represented Woody’s shirt. The stripes were piped on with a food writer, which was a bit difficult to keep straight, but it worked. The top tier were two 9″ round cakes stacked on top of each other with the lemon filling in between. This tier represented Buzz/Andy’s bed with blue frosting and yellow fondant stars. I traced and cut out the Happy Birthday 3 out of foam paper, which was tedious but worth it! The sheriff’s badge was made from fondant and I wrote my son’s name with a metallic marker.
The train on top was a toy from Action Links and the trolls were purchased on eBay. I was really happy with how the cake turned out, and I learned a lot for next time!
