Fondant Firefighter Cake
For Jaxson's 4th Birthday I made him a 3 tier firefighter birthday cake. I love the way it came out...
For this amazing firefighter cake, the bottom tier is a fireman's hose. I covered the cake in yellow fondant and dirtied it up using brown food coloring and water. I used a stencil for the "ENGINE #4", since it was Jaxson's 4th Birthday.
The middle tier cake is a building on fire. I covered the cake in brick red colored fondant. I used a brick impression mat to get a brick design. I used an edible flames sheet and build fondant window frames around it.
The top tier cake is Dalmatians spots. Every kid pairs a fireman with a Dalmatian dogs, plus the party decorations have a Dalmatian on it. I made a dog collar with the name JAX on it. I used edible silver luster dust to get the silver color.
The cake topper is a 4 coming out of flames. This is made out of a gum paste/fondant mixture. I had to make this 5 days in advance so it was hard enough to put on top of the cake.
The birthday boy loved it!
Happy 4th Birthday to my sweet man! I will post pictures of his Firefighter Themed Birthday within the next few days.
What did you think about this cake? Do you have any questions about it?

How did you get the fondant hose and nozzle to come out off the cake like that? Did you get another piece and attach it to the cake with it already covered in fondant? Hope this makes since.
ReplyDeleteHey Jessica, I'm sorry that I'm just now seeing this. I just wrapped an extra piece of fondant (the hose) around the cake. The backside you can see the line.
