Have you heard of the phrase "Bumblebee Transform"? I certainly have. Well, maybe it's because I have heard it everyday during winter break. You see, my 4 year old cousin is a Transformer freak and he keeps talking about Transformers all the time. His birthday was on Tuesday, January 27, 2015 but I couldn't make a cake for him on that day :( as it was a weekday. But the following Saturday, I finally made him a carved Bumblebee car cake. On the day of his birthday, he wouldn't accept the birthday cake, his parents bought him from the store. In fact, he kept asking me, "Where is my Bumblebee cake birthday?" It was so cute and hilarious at the same time.
On Friday, I started to make his cake. I made all the prep work in the beginning, and then I started to carve it. I went through 2 entire 9x13 cakes to make the car, but I had a lot of wastage at the end. I think about 3/4th of a 9x13 cake ended up as waste. It was a hard cake to carve as this was the first time I was making a 3D car cake, but I was determined to get all the little details right.
When I revealed the cake to my cousin, at first he didn't believe that it was actually a cake. He thought that it was a Bumblebee toy car. He even tried to open the door by pulling the door handle, and attempted to transform it by pulling the wheels. I was so happy to see him play with it. No one wanted to cut the car cake, but we finally did anyway. Here is the finished cake, and a movie of me actually making the cake.
Please watch the video and give me your feedback!
