Train cake

Because I have many more pages to read before I sleep, I present for your viewing pleasure the train cake.*

Since we went with chocolate, per the boy’s request, and since I wasn’t willing to whip up a real icing,** the decoration is not particularly visible. But there was enough blue on the engine to elicit a joyful cry of “a Thomas cake.” And he happily devoured an entire car that night and had a couple more over the next few days.***

Turns out that he is also particularly fond of gummy Life-Savers. That’s my boy!

*And a shot of my Spamalot T-shirt.

**It’s milk and confectioner’s sugar with food coloring. I had already relented and allowed the cake to be made from a non-organic mix, so I wasn’t willing to add chemical-filled icing.

***Special bonus, Trillian picked up an ice cream cake for the actual day of his birthday. Between his two birthday celebrations and Easter treats, he has been sugared up non-stop!

Great cake! I was dying to see that.
I really have to start making my kids cakes.
There is no mistaking that blue train for anyone but Thomas.

Beautiful cake!

I left out the fact, that Trillian would emphatically confirm, that I get kind of weirdly possessive about the birthday cake--and Halloween costumes. I'm not all that great at decorating, but I insist on doing a homemade cake. Luckily I'm also realistic and am able to manage through simple designs. I still think my best was the Elmo cake for his second birthday. Round layer cake covered uniformly with reddish-orange icing and two eyes drawn in white at the top.

Weirdly possessive would be the understatement of the century sweetheart.
