chocolate cake

Miss C. has been requesting some more cake,
play food cake.
I had already made 2 cakes,
but it was not enough!


So this time I made a cake she can "cut"
and serve individual pieces.

I started with 2 inch foam,


drew a circle with a plate, and marked 6 pieces.


I cut the 6 pieces with a bread knife.

I cut a 2 inch band of brown felt


and wrap the cake, cutting it to length.

Then I stitched it at the pointy end, the middle of the cake.


Using the same plate,
I also cut top and bottom of the pieces of cake.


and stitched all over the top and bottom.


It was looking like a nice cake,
but very plain!

So I added some whip cream,
following this description.

I also added 2 bands of lighter color felt,
to replicate the actual cake that was not covered in icing.


I think it worked quite well,
and she seems happy!

Happy sewing!
