Un- Wordless Wednesday - Train Cake

Two sheet cakes (one chocolate, one vanilla) , six mini loaf cakes (three chocolate, three vanilla), two batches of vanilla cream cheese frosting, three grocery store runs, two packages of peach gummy rounds, one package of M&Ms, many marshmallows, one pill bottle, one Crest toothpaste box, one ounce blue food dye and many hours later the train cake for M's 5th birthday (taking place on 10-10-10) was complete.

Caroline helped me, especially with the design. She let me know when I applied the white frosting where the green frosting was supposed to go and encouraged with me comments like this one: "Ooh! Mommy, I can't even look. That's how bad the train track looks! You better start over."  I didn't start over.

The entire cake was demolished eaten in about five minutes at the birthday party. Happy Birthday M!
