This was a fun cake! Young Mr. Major had a vision… he wanted a Ghostbusters cake. He goes by the moniker “M-Dog,” which is cool because the nickname given me by my brothers when I was growing up was “Nay-Dog.” I can relate. An interesting twist on this one was that M-Dog wanted his name written in fog. Now that’s my kind of client! I could see the direction he was heading and this was the outcome:
This was a yummy cake too: chocolate fudge espresso cake with chocolate ganache filling and icing, covered in black dark chocolate rolled fondant. I decorated the cake with marbled grey “fog” and red and white fondant beads at the border, with a little airbrushing to give it that “mist” effect. On the top is a custom-cutout of the Ghostbusters icon and a marbled grey gumpaste plaque, with the birthday message and M-Dog’s name written in “fog” – airbrushed and outlined in food coloring. The cake board is also covered in marbled fondant to give it that “fog” effect.
Love it!
peace, love & cake.
