Treble birthday celebration

This cake was commissioned to celebrate three birthdays in the same family - a second birthday, a fifty something birthday and a ninety first birthday! The monochrome colour palette accented with shots of scarlet allowed the three separate themes to be combined seamlessly. The bottom tier featured handmade icing ribbon roses and a hand made icing bow; the second tier, a hand painted  RAF badge as the recipient had driven motorcycles for the RAF; and the third tier a band of hand painted Lightning McQueen characters for McQueen's number one fan. The cake itself was three tiers of light, moist vanilla sponge filled with layers of fruity raspberry conserve and vanilla butter cream.
