So the winner of my cake contest was the lovely Sarah in Arizona. So I had to figure out how to send a fully decorated cake in the mail. I have made cakes in jars and shipped those before, so that was the beginning of my plan. After finding out that she wanted a birthday cake for her daughter who likes Tinkerbell, trains, and bees, I came up with a fairy train station theme. Technically, you aren't supposed to reproduced licensed characters, and since it was going through the mail, I cheated a little bit and used some inedible items on this cake. But I think turned out ok.
I sent it all in pieces, and it was Sarah's job to assemble it all together. Everything is edible except the train, Tinkerbell, and the bees. And the glass jars of course. It was a tasty strawberry cake and I sent along a can of cream cheese frosting for dolloping on top.
I really liked making this cake, so if anyone else wants a cake by mail, or delivery, lemme know.
