Christee-Lee Cakes

Today is my little man’s 6th birthday.  I gave him the option of any cake he wanted.  This decision proved quite a difficult task, with the choice changing with each suggestion made.  He finally settled on a Ben 10 cake.  His choice of flavour was vanilla (quite a change from the usual mudcake).  As he chose a plainer type cake, I suggested adding a filling.  Jake is a huge fan of Oreo’s, so we went with Cookies and Cream filling.  Using my awesome Agbay cake leveller, I levelled the 20cm round cake then made a nice cut through the centre.  This is actually the first time I have filled a cake so it was a bit of an experiment for me.  I filled the centre with the freshly made Cookies and Cream filling (next time, I will add double the amount of filling I think).  I covered the entire cake with a thin layer of vanilla buttercream and then decorated with coloured fondant to create a Ben 10 Omnitrix.  Graymatter and all other decorations were hand made with fondant. Jake loved his cake.  Happy 6th Birthday Dude!! xxx
