magic roundabout cake

magic roundabout cake

This was about the 6th or 7th cake I ever decorated. I made it for my husband. I made all the figures and decorations from gumpaste. I intended to make the round top piece of the roundabout from rice crispie treats. I made the round rice crispie cake and put it in a sandwhich box before going to bed. ( my husband did not know I was making this cake) when I got up in the morning to assemble the cake I found that my husband had taken a great big wedge from it!!! I was devastated. Lucky enough the cake I had made was way too tall and so I was able to use this for the top. The cone shape is made from rice crispie treats, but I didn’t realise at the time that if I had coated it in buttercream before the fondant I would have had a smoother finish. Nevermind, I learnt a lot from this cake
