So this is the "firetruck" cake. Not my best work to say the least. To be honest the frosting was the problem. Harry doesn't like fondant, nor does he like royal icing. Both would have been far better choices to decorate with. This left me with just plain old, sweet sticky icing. I used less liquid to try and keep it a bit on the stiff side, however my kitchen was far too warm and the frosting was runny and not doing what I wanted at all. It was my hope the Fireman Sam figures would distract from the horrid cake.
Harry, however LOVED his cake! He also loved the candles and I believe we re lit them no less than 20 times! Happy (early) Birthday Harrison!
He certainly looks like he likes it anyway!
