How much black fondant is used in this cake?
good question lilly. you will need arppox 500g, get 750 to be safe, I roll my fondant fairly thin.
I made this cake and the birthday girl loved it! Here it is:
Hi Kiko, great job, I am glad the birthday girl loved it.
Hey, I have watched your videos and I love them, and I would like you to see if you can help me to make that cake, I leave you the pictures.
hope you are able to help me thank you
if you think you are able to do it it’s for 150 people for a 1st year birthday
Hi Nicole, have you watched the truck cake tutorial? that will give you some ideas of where to start. http://www.howtocookthat.net/public_html/truck-birthday-cake-how-to/ I suggest that you enlarge your pictures and cut out the shape of the side of your car for a cutting template for the cake. To make this beg enough for 150 people it will need to be a very big car. Think about cutting it into quarters, cut the quarter in half and then cut that piece into 17 pieces. The other option is to make a rectangle or tiered round cake base and then the car out of fondant as a decoration on top.
hi the video I’m getting is 1.32 mins long and only shows as far as the covered cake board?
