John Deere Cake

For this John Deere cake, I made 2 cakes in loaf pans to make the main parts of the cake and cut them to make the right shape. I used cupcakes for the wheels, small ones for the front and larger ones for the back.

I didn't want to make black icing so I used mini chocolate chips to outline the windows on the cab. I also iced the cupcakes in yellow and then rolled them in chocolate chips for the tires.

I used a long skinny chocolate stick for the smoke stack. I used Smarties for the lights on the cab. I got my ideas from this site, it's awesome!

I had promised my 3 year old a tractor cake and the person who normally makes the birthday cakes for us was too busy so Mommy had to step up. It was so fun!! Now I make all the cakes for my kids!
