Retirement Cake

Easy directions for making this retirement cake:

Bake a sheet cake the size that you need.  Ice the cake with white icing using a cake spatula and making sure that the surface is smooth.

With an icing filled bag and round tip, size #5, draw a welder's mask on the right side of the cake.  Also draw a couple of welding sticks.  Leave room on te upper left hand side for the message.

It can be a retirement message or a birthday message.

Use black icing and star tip, size #18 and fill in the black part of the welder's mask.  Also fill in the welding sticks.

Use white icing and fill in the window on the welder's mask using the same size star tip.

Make yellow icing and use round tip, size #5 to make sparks lines at the end of the sticks.

Sprinkle edible yellow glitter on the sparks.

Using round tip, size #5 and red icing (or the color of your choice), write the message on the upper left hand side of the cake.
