Simon had seen some of my Thomas train cakes on my website and asked if i could do a similar cake for his son. As i wanted something a little different from the other Thomas train cakes i’d done previously, i decided to set the trains on a blue based background with little clouds all over the cake and little rolling green hills on the side of the cake. The train toppers i made on the top were of Percy and James since these 2 were Ansel’s favourite characters.

Here’s a side view of the cake and the trains…

Simon had asked me to include the rail road crossing sign as well.. but i had to do it out of paper and that wasn’t edible :p

In addition to the cake, Simon also asked if i could do some cupcakes for him, following the same theme… i of course said no problem. However, since cost was a factor, we agreed that instead of 3d trains on each of the cupcakes, i would do 2D faces of the trains as the cupcake topper instead.

These were how they turned out. The cupcakes included Thomas, Percy and James. Don’t they look cheery and bright I had a fun time thinking up various expressions for the faces and having each of the cupcakes with their eyes looking in different directions. Cute aren’t they
