Chess Cake For 60Th Birthday
This was the cake I made for my FIL's 60th. He loves chess, and my SIL suggested that as the theme. It was my first attempt at making 3-D candy, and I need more practice at that, as well as keeping in the lines on the chess board, but all in all, I was pleased with the outcome. He loved it, and several games of chess were actually played on the cake as the party went on. :) 16" two layer spice cake with buttercream icing. medallions and chess pieces in milk chocolate and white chocolate mint.
Wow. The chess pieces are amazing!
Love it!!!
Beautiful Chess Board Cake! Everything looks awesome and I think it is really cool that several games of Chess were actually played on the cake before it got eaten! Awesome job! :)
Thank you! :) It was really cute.. we had to make him blow out the candles and cut the cake before he could 'play with his food'. :)
This is amazing!!! I love it
The chess pieces are from molds, BTW. :) Got the molds from Confectionery House. They rock!
Great job! I made one of these so I know how time comsuming it is!
Going into my favorites - what a great idea.
this cake is great, I want to make one for my DH. Great Job!!! 8O
