I am not usually a crafty person, but I decided to try and be creative with Caleb's cake this year. I decided to make a train, so after looking online for several ideas (gotta love the internet), I got started. I made a cake in a 9 x 13 pan and then cut it up into rectangles. Then I arranged my rectangles to form the train.
The first car I decorated was the engine.
Another view of the completed engine.
Then I did the middle car.
The other side of the two completed cars.
Here are all the completed cars--I forgot to take a picture of just the three cars without the decorations--oops! Here I am adding the details.
And--voila! The finished product!
Another view.
I think that I did a pretty good job--if I do say so myself!
More presents for Caleb.
