Starla's Rock Party cake
Bake 2 rectangle sheet cakes. (I don't use fondant as most people don't like the taste. Using regular icing is much better)I added food color to make it more interesting when you sliced the cake. One purple, one lime green.
Sheet 1 - cut out the guitar body shape.
Sheet 2 - cut out the neck/fret section of the guitar.
I used white icing and added food color to separate icing containers.
The black lines for the strings was just some squeezed tube icing with the small round tip.
This was my FIRST "theme" cake to make and I really don't cook/bake ever. It turned out VERY tasty and everyone loved it.
The most compliments was on the creativity by NOT using fondant and it being that much more enjoyable/original.
The over all length was over 2 feet and width was about 11 inches.
It would have been better had I bought one of those large spreading/icing knives. I just used a plastic spatula...again...I don't really cook or bake.
