Ogdan's First Birthday Cake


For Ogdan's First Birthday Cake party, I recreated Brent's first birthday cake. When Brent turned one 30 years ago, his Mom had a choo choo train cake made for him. Brent and I had a few ideas of the kind of cake I was going to make for Ogdan's birthday, but then photos were brought out of Brent's first birthday cake and the dilemma was solved. My recreation of the birthday cake is pretty close. I did some improvising and improving to fit the changing times, I mean it has been 30 years, but over all it looks very similar. Some changes that I made were, making a smaller version for Ogdan to have all on his own, a coal car to make the cake feed more people, and a railroad track.

If I can say so myself, it turned out pretty good given all I had was one small photo to go from.
