Anyone Fancy a Pint??

Why is it that most of my cakes turn out cartoony??  Maybe it's because that's the way I like them and this cake is no exception. 
Created to celebrate the 60th birthday of an old friends dad who loves a pint of Cornish Tribute Ale.

It's made with my 'Dizzying Lemon Sponge' with lemon curd filling so should pack quite a punch!

The pale ale colour was created with my faithful airbrush who I fondly refer to as 'The Badger' simply as this is his brand name and I think it suits him.  I think he did a grand job on this cake :)
I rolled fondant to create the frothy bubbles and over spill and piped the pint glass details by hand. 

Oh I do love making cakes that look like foody things :)  I loved making this cake and in the process got to catch up with lovely Nicky... it had been far far too long.  I really hope her dad likes it.

Happy Birthday Nicky's Dad!!
