Another excuse to make a cake!
As all the kiddies in our coffee groups birthdays’ were so close together we decided on doing a joint birthday celebration for them all. We decided to do a boy and a girl cake and I volunteered to get creative for the boys.
By 2 all of the boys were really into trucks and diggers and building sites….therefore my cake idea was born! Kylan had been given a load of little digger and trucks for Christmas so that made my idea take off!

I dug up bits of cake which the digger was in and put some in the dump truck |
My biggest challenge was to create the brown fondant. I didn’t want to have to go out and buy brown colouring paste so I experimented using cocoa powder and water to make a paste and used that to colour my fondant….Worked a charm!!
This cake was quite fun to do as it didn’t need to look perfect! Rough looked good with this theme…and it was only my second fondant creation so I was pretty happy with myself 🙂

Happy 2nd Birthday to all of the coffee group kiddies |
