 I made 2 9x13 confetti cakes, carved the train, filled with confetti buttercream.Icing was trutti-frutti buttercream, and rolled fondant for pieces of the train. I added m'm's to the cart. I piped a train track underneath and made a marshmallow smoke stack. |

Thomas Complete Train Cake |
 The tracks were made with black licorice, railroad ties Kit Kat bars, with Rice Krispies cereal for gravel. Made this cake before I learned how to work with fondant, so it's iced with store-bought icing. "wheels" are oreos, with m&m hubs. This cake was for my son's 2nd birthday, and was a lot of fun! |
