I have a big confession to make here... Pinterest is killing my creativity! Every minute I'm being fed all these wonderful ideas, and it's just too hard not to swipe some of them. I saw this magic hat cake pinned on Pinterest and found out it was made by CC user nonilm (and she was inspired by others). A few days later my friend Tammy called and wanted a magic themed birthday cake for her son Jack.
It's such a cute design! I showed it to Tammy and she loved it!! And Tammy even came over to help me make it! She got to roll out some fondant and cut out stars while I worked on the icing and stacking. Part of this great design is it's simplicity - it's basically just a 2-tiered cake with an extra cake board on top to make the brim of the hat. The bunny and magic scarves just sit on top of that top cake board.
I must admit that I really wanted to make the "JACK" letters from modeling chocolate, but I ran out of time here and had to resort to printing them out on an edible image. I still think they turned out cute though!
Here's another shot of the cake, a better closeup of that cute little bunny face! We printed out a few playing cards and since Jack was turning four they all had to be the 4 of hearts!
Thank you all so much for stopping by and looking in on my adventures in the cake world. See you next time!!
