When Mel asked if I would make sesame street themed cupcakes for Kyle, I was excited and said "Yes!" immediately. I did, however, hesitate when Mel asked I would make a 3D cake and a 3-tier cake stand too. It was all so exciting but I had never done a 3D cake before and I wasn't sure if I'd be able to do it. I thought about it, slept on it and decided that I wanted to... and I'm glad that I did. It was amazing experience.
I knew there would be a lot of work involved so I broke it up into stages and did work over quite a number of days... starting with the character toppers... baby Elmo, baby Cookie Monster and baby Big Bird.
Next was the cake stand...
Then the cake...
And last but not least, the cupcakes...
After all that baking and decorating, I was much too tired to stay for little Kyle's birthday party but here are a couple of lovely photos which Mel sent me...
