For an old man

I got work yesterday morning and found another 🎂 cake order hanging.  I thought this was a lot to put on one little 1/4 sheet 🎂 cake but oh well. I wasnt thrilled about having to do the 🚜 tractor but not much I can do about that. It looks like a kid drew it with a broken crayon

No it doesn't!! I love the tractor! I could not come even close to such a good image. And doing it in frosting, which is harder than pencil or crayon. It is unusual and fun.

I guess when you go into work, you never know what kind of orders you will find, kind of fun. Except for the hard work part.

I love that tractor! It's charming.

Are you kidding me? This is awesome!!

I LOVE the tractor!

Actor looks just like a tractor not too fond of the color scheme but it looks great to me. I would kill somebody who wrote old woman on my cake not the person who wrote it the person who ordered it

Rose said...

Oh. I think that is a fine tractor! I love the 'happy birthday, old man' part..would love to know the story to that.

Sandee said...

I think you did great on that cake. The old man part made me think that this guy is 40 or 50. Old my behind.

Have a fabulous day off, Ann. Big hug to you and lots of scritches to Gibbs. ♥♥♥

Oh, Ann, I think that tractor is wonderful! If I had ordered a cake such as that, I would have been thrilled with the results... and I'm sure your customer was too. If they weren't they certainly should have been! Love, Andrea xoxo

I'm not crazy about the black roses but all in all that cake is AWESOME!

It came out really cute and you did a great job on the tractor!

Sandi said...

The tractor is cute though!

that's not a kids' crayon version of the tractor - that's a TRACTOR...and you created it on his cake...I'm sure it will bring many memories...

Ann said...

Ginny, I had to draw it in pencil on paper first before I even started on the cake. Yes, I never know what I'm going to go into when I go to work in the morning.

CheerfulMonk, thanks.

Anni, Well it's no masterpiece ...lol

Sandee, thanks. Yeah, he probably isn't any older than that or maybe just turned 30...lol

Andrea, I used to always criticize my cakes and my boss told me that the people ordering can't even decorate the way I do and they'll be thrilled so I shouldn't be so hard on myself. Still I can't help it I always am

Betsy, thanks

Grace, I think he's probably a Pittsburgh Steelers fan so that's why the black and yellow

Sandi, thank you

Catherine well thank you :))

I've never seen "old man" on a birthday cake before :) You did a great job on the tractor. I know I couldn't do it.
