I made this for my son's 5th birthday.  I used a toy fire truck and some pictures from the internet for inspiration.  I also looked at nearly every fire truck cake on cc!  I carved the cake from a 9x13 and covered it in fondant.  All of the details are fondant except for the ladder which is royal icing.  I wanted to add some more little details, but I was just too tired to do anymore.

Wouldn't you agree after making this one that it will cost an arm and leg if any customers want this same cake? LOL I thoroughly enjoyed making mine, but I swore that I never needed to do another one again!

This is fantastic. I have a firetruck cake I need to make in another month and was looking for inspiration and boy I found it. Can you tell me what red and silver coloring you used?I am worried about getting my red fondant a nice red and I have never worked with a silver color.
