Hi, i am hoping to make a birthday cake for my son next month who will be 15, i have seen the 3D car cruiser tin made by wilton on ebay and wondered if anyone had used this or any other car tin are they fairly easy to use and decorate, and if you have to cover them in butter icing or you can use sugarpaste, like the peppa pig, also if anyone has any suggestions or ideas i would be grateful.

I've got to do a football themed cake - normally I'd turn this sort of thing down but it's a favour for a friend. Argh! I'm totally uninspired - anyone got any bright ideas?

hmm dont like those much either...but when they ask for football I tend to do the football cake and change the board colours to match their favorite team.......nothing brill I am afraid but its quite quick to do

What's 'the football cake' Rach? Do you mean a spherical cake or a normal flat round cake? No, it's not my thing at all... :-(
