Monster Truck Cake (Grave Digger) That You Can "drive"

Ok, you cannot REALLY drive it, but the wheels really did turn and roll like a real toy car!

We love Monster Jam ( monster trucks) and grave digger my favorite! made in aug. 2009, this is my first truck / vehical cake made for a friend's son for his 8th birthday. the cake is fudge brownie , the wheels are solid chocolate & made with a homemade mold and have wooden dowels for 'axles" and the wheels reAlly rolled! the cake sits on a pc. of cardboard folded in half, secured, and the 1/2 " dowels are sandwhich'ed in between then and peircing through the sides .the wheels and cake are covered in homemade marshmallow fondant and I handpainted with a "paint" made with lusterdust and wilton icing gel colors and vodka. The flag has gumpaste "jolly rodger" on fodant. The only parts of the cake that you couldnt eat was the flags wire, 2 dowels and the cardboard.
