Construction Site Birthday Cake

 

My little boy is now three. Where did the time go? I wanted to make him a special cake, but I have no real cake decorating ability (or any patience to try acquire it). I a cake similar to this one in a picture on pinterest but unfortunately the photo didn’t link anywhere :( Gordie told me that the best part of his birthday was the machines from the cake. It was definitely a hit!

I used a basic butter cream icing with peanut butter but any kind would do. I put it on the cake before it had finished cooling so that’s why it’s a little bit melty.

I found the machines at Walmart, they’re Matchbox brand and were only a little over a dollar each.

I used skor bits, chocolate chips and peanut butter chips.For the piles of dirt and rocks. I was thinking some kind of crushed up cookies or oreo crumbs would be great too.
