SuperGabe to the rescue!

Gabe was having a birthday and this year, he chose Superman as his hero (last year, I did a Batman cake for him so I was excited to top that cake). His mother, Reena, had seen a cool cake with Superman flying out of a burning building and wanted to recreate the cake with a few added details. After Gabe saw the sketch, we were ready to go! The cake was a Brownie Lovers Cake with mint ganache layered in between the chocolate cake and brownie layers. It was covered in marshmallow fondant and decorated with marshmallow fondant as well.

The burning building was rice krispies covered in marshmallow fondant and then I painted on the fire for the windows. I made Superman out of fondant as well and tried to get his muscles bulging :) I also thought it was funny that Superman has a sort of 70's Superman hairdo. The Superman logo and shooting stars were made out of fondant too. Gabe was so cute when he saw the cake. He kept wanted to touch and poke and eat, but they had to wait for the party :) I'm so glad he loved it!
