Switchfoot Themed Cake Balls - October 2013

These are cake balls I made for the band members of Switchfoot and their crew as part of the Switchfoot Baking Club.  I decorated them with various 'Switchfoot themed' items, and brought them to their Fading West movie viewing and concert back in October. 

 

[The little picture of the guitar to the side is a correction on one of the guitars that I had made that I delivered at a later date.  I got it wrong and it bugged me. ;) ]

More pictures and details to come... :)

Cake in the Key of G - October 2006

I made this guitar cake for my husband, Ronnie's, birthday. I wanted to try to make it look like his guitar.

 

Below is a picture of Ronnie's guitar next to the cake guitar.

I baked a cake in a 9x13 pan and then cut the different parts of the guitar I needed from that and pieced them together.  So, the guitar is all made from cake iced with buttercream; the details were piped on using buttercream icing also.  Instead of piping the strings with icing though, I decided to use dry spaghetti to make them look more like guitar strings.
