My son's birthday is on Monday but we celebrated his birthday a few days early. And it's a good thing because he has been waiting for his birthday since October! Last year he had a guitar cake, but this year he insisted on having a Daniel Tiger (from PBS's Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood). I wasn't really feeling it though, so I did a lot of convincing!
Jimmy LOVES the color green and everything that is green, so it only makes sense that he likes the Ninja Turtles too. With enough persuading, he agreed on having a Ninja Turtle cake, but Daniel Tiger had to be on it too.
So here is our version of Daniel Tiger + TMNT.
I had a lot of fun making this cake too! And I practiced my ombre shading on the outside of the cake...inside will be another project!
I'm not sure if he was more excited about the green cake, the Ninja Turtles, or the fact that Daniel Tiger was with the Ninja Turtles. I can image we'll be taking about this cake for months to come!
Go here to see the whole party!
This cake is adorable (love Daniel)! What technique did you use for the icing?
ReplyDeleteThank you! For the frosting, I divided out and dyed it different shades of green. When applying it, I added a dot of frosting and then used my frosting wand to "wipe" it away. Time consuming, but totally worth it!
