Thomas in 3D

There is always a first for everyone, right?! Well, here's my first attempt of a 3D Thomas. This cake was requested by B's colleague's son who's a big Thomas fan. B's colleague requested for The Island of Sodor. This is the closest that I can come up with given that the surface area of the cake was a wee bit small to accommodate a volcano (yupp... was planning on doing a volcano but had to scrap it due to space constraint).

Underneath all those cream, lies an American Chocolate Cake topped with dark chocolate ganache. I would like to think that Thomas and Clarabel are chugging away around the Island of Sodor, passing pools and meadows filled with blossoming flowers. I used brown sugar to cover the remaining of the cake board to imitate the beach that surrounds the island.

A close-up of Thomas which I borrowed from Zareef's many, many trains. I even doubt he'll miss it given that he's so into all things Transformers right now.



My source of inspiration, also courtesy from Zareef's vast collection of all things Thomas which I religiously collected at car boot sales during our 4 years stint in Loughborough.
