Yum! Don’t suppose you have pics of the cake being made?
Objective-Chard7542 OP t1_ja052r6 wrote
I have pictures of the cake prior to decorating and all of the individual pieces before being applied.
Objective-Chard7542 OP t1_j9ulxai wrote
I made this for my grandson’s 4th birthday. He loves fire trucks and Lego so I made everything from fondant and sugar to cover the homemade vanilla buttercream-filled strawberry cake.

Those little bricks are so impressive alone... But the Fire Truck??!? You out-did yourself. It's wonderful.

Thank you so much!

Haha, you make it sound so easy! I know my roommate likes bananas so I buy him a few when I am the store thinking I am considerate and attentive. But he is happy, I am happy 🤷♀️.

Super impressive! I thought this was real Legos until I read the title. Just stay away from the subreddit that hates fondant and please keep posting!

I can't stand fondant, but the details, the colors, the sharpness...its all so damn good. You got some skills.
Objective-Chard7542 OP t1_j9w6ibb wrote
Thanks! I appreciate the compliment! I get the fondant comment as many people that way. It’s a great sculptural medium and really helps to achieve some pretty cool outcomes!

Modeling chocolate gives great sculpting results and tastes better

Modeling chocolate is great. So is my fondant.

Really nice job on all the details. Each piece looks like a lego and it feels like I could snap some bricks into the top. The color is also fantastic and I bet a lego truck was difficult to make.
