Fire Truck

I made this fire truck for my son's 8th Birthday. He and his brother helped out with the control panels and fire hose. The ladders are hand cut and assembled using gum paste. Hand carved Chocolate cake with Cookies and Creme filling, fondant icing over a generous layer of chocolate ganache. The control panel is painted with a silver dust to give it the look of real metal.
