My Son's 7th Birthday cake!

[AhBee01]

Here is a pic of my son's cake. I'm not a baker nor a cake decorator! LOL! I tried and he likes so that is all that counts.
I did see some of the idea on the internet, their cake was by far better looking!
It is Bakugan for those who don't know, the little balls are the battle brawlers, I used suckers and painted on the designs. For someone who can't draw a stick figure it didn't come out quite as cool as I was going for! The person on the internet used chocolate truffles and edible pearl paint, but it was really expensive so I brainstormed and got the idea to use suckers!
I made the frosting from scratch but since I put it in the fridge the icing has an off flavor, so I'm sad about that! Anyone know how to avoid that next time?
Thanks for looking!

That came out WAY better than it would have if I did it. I can bake the cake, but I cannot draw a straight line. As for the flavor, next time try putting it in a bakery box.

Happy Birthday Michael!

oh look....it's space balls.

and next time....stick it in the microwave...but don't turn it on.

or you could just eat it and skip the putting it away till later part.
