Mens Cakes

Men's cakes seem to be more difficult to come up with for some reason. If the birthday guy isn't into sports, here are some other great cake options to entertain.
Cigar Box Cake |
![]() I hand painted the brown on the outside of the box to look like wood. Do this by using color gels and water it down with an extract. Layer the paint..gives you wood look. The top is made out of gum paste. You must let that dry up for a day or two. The ash tray and cigars were hand molded out of modeling chocolate. The name is an edible image:) |

Taco Cake |
The cake itself is made with a standard yellow cake flavored with strawberry candy flavoring, torted (three layers) with strawberry cream cheese filling. It is iced with a triple chocolate butter cream icing. The taco shell is filled with gum paste calla lilies and gum paste lettuce. Both the cake and the design were a hit. |

Washed Up Plumber Cake |
I hand molded the man out of gum paste and used luster dust for sink details. The water is piping gel...Thanks for looking... Tip:Make your gum paste decorations in advance so they have time to dry. This will also make putting the cake together much faster and easier on the day you are serving it. |

Playboy Cake |
![]() Each layer is dusted with irridescent luster dust to create the shimmer. Around the base of each layer is a strip of black fondant. Over these black fondant strips, real ribbon with the "celebrate" inscription is affixed. On top of the playboy cake is a black fondant circle surrounded by balls of pink fondant. In the center of the circle, a playboy bunny logo cut from pink fondant is centered. The cake sits atop a silver cake board. |

Old Fart Cake |
![]() Between the legs is a fondant plaque which was cut out, allowed to dry, and then I made an inscription with edible pens. The heart design was also made by drawing with edible pens. The flesh colored fondant was created by adding copper colored gel paste to white fondant. After that fondant was applied to the ball cakes, the legs cut from the sheet cake were cut to meet up with the ball cakes and iced. Then they were covered with a light blue colored fondant. The belt is a dark blue fondant and on top of the belt are thin strips of the light blue fondant to create the look of jean belt loops. The bottom of the jeans are a darker blue to resemble the folded bottom of heads. Finally, the darkest blue represents the back of the shoes. |
