Well, it's tradition, and once again we have another boy in cub scouts making a cake for the cake auction with his Dad. Carter is a whiz at the computer and for weeks has been using Google to find pictures of thousands of cake ideas! This was the one he decided on! There were so many different variations of how you could make this cake, but I like how his turned out.
On the day of, he got ready for school early, so he had enough time to help mix and bake the cake. It required 1 cake pan and 1 loaf pan. There was also enough batter left over that we also made cupcakes for our kiddos at home. The cake cooled while he was at school. When he got home everything he and Rick needed to make it was out and waiting! Carter enjoyed cutting the "tracks" for the tank. Rick liked making the opening at the top with the soldier inside. They both worked well together, and I cleaned up behind them.
The Blue and Gold Banquet was fun! We have a lot of great leaders and families in our area! I am just happy the cake turned out great and it was what Carter wanted and planned out!
Side note: Rick is such a hottie! After 15 years, I never get tired of looking at him!
