Kid's birthday cake

Every year i stress out about the kids' cake for their combined party and kill myself making a cake for each of them. This year, i thought i'd be smart and make them a cake they can share but still have their own "individuality". So, i set out to plant ideas in their heads starting with their Halloween costume. It worked! :)

We decided on Batman and Robin theme and i searched the web for the perfect cake. In the end, i combined a few ideas and came up with this! This allowed them to both have one side each. And personally i found it pretty funny! :)

As i had to try something new each time, i decided to try out a 2-tier cake!! It really isn't as hard as i thought it was going to be!!! Went to bed at 3 am(including cleaning).

Cody's side of the cake

Tyler's side of the cake

Turn one side for one kid

The other side for the other kid!!

The bottom tier was made with 4 layers of butter/chocolate layers with cream cheese frosting with 1 layer of strawberry. It is frosted with yellow cream cheese frosting with fondant building. The top tier was made with 2 layers of pineapple cake with cream cheese frosting. The outer shell is all fondant. Figurines are not edible.

It is a great cake and very clever cannot wait to show it to Val. Looks like it took a long time.

Thanks!! :) It didn't take TOO long. Probably faster than doing two different cakes!! :)
