I have got such a backlog of cakes to show you! Fair to say, that returning to making cakes as Aardvark Cakes is going well. I had forgotten about the pain of having both ovens on for several hours on a roasting hot day though. Luckily the evenings were cooler last week for rolling out the fondant icing.
This Police Car Birthday Cake was for one of Tara’s friends from school. Barney is a lovely little boy and had a fantastic party on Sunday, in their very own gymnastics studio! The kids had a blast and I could happily eat the slice of cake in Tara’s party bag as I knew exactly where it had come from!
This was definitely my sort of cake – I love doing the intricate decorations. Tara even ‘helped’ by deciding where we were going to place the fondant pebbles and grass.


I love how you have incorporated the number 5 in as the road. Brilliant cake!
Thank you! I was originally going to do the road running down the front of the cake but this seemed to work better x
Love the police car cake Helen, you’re a very talented lady. I would imagine the birthday boy loved it. ….and yes, I too have a ‘to bake’ list 🙂

Oh I’m glad I’m not the only one – I’m about to start a marathon food programme watch session – No doubt that ‘To Bake’ list will grow even longer!
