Looking for some ideas as quoted by a customer.

"He is REALLY into outer space stuff and
I am attaching a solar system picture that might serve as inspiration."

Any suggestions or ideas.

Thanks,
Tanya

I agree with baking in pyrex bowls and mini-ball pans. Mise en place bowls are tempered glass and would work very well -- see picture at the following link:

You may want to consider airbrushing, as the rest of the planets have cloud covers so dense that you cannot see land.

FYI - Jupiter is the largest planet.

You could also do a sheet cake or round cake and use big and small gumballs for the planets.

I really like the idea of using the mini ball cakes too!

Post a pic!

I did a rocket ship cake for an 8yr old last year. I put his picture in the window so it would look like he was the astronaut.

I posted a picture in my photos

Thanks all. I was going to do a couple of planets with a simple space shuttle. But the customer added that her son was more into the aspects of space. So, this is what I ended up doing.

Thanks again,
Tanya

Try again with attachment.
