Gavins Bday cake

Sorry I know its been awhile. I finally got my mom to take the pictures of the camera
Anyways...
Here's a tip on what NOT to do to a birthday cake.

So Gavin's Birthday was March 20th, and he wanted a Lord of the Rings Cake. (Seriously?)
So I baked the cake and let it cool, then I asked my mom if I could use some pistachio pudding for the filling,
(Tip: don't ever make this mistake! I don't know if it was the brand or what! just trust me, DON'T DO IT!)
She said yes, and look what Happened:

Eww! 

 Pudding was oozing down the sides of the cake. Yuck! I couldn't frost it, it kept sliding off

Looks like boogers! 

So in desperation, I decided to make a mountain. My brother had some LOTR toy figurines, so I used those, some frosting, sculptable frosting, and bits of cake to cover it up as best I could.

Here's how it turned out:

Merry and Pippin talking on a mountain 

 Yeah, I know its not the best but its not the worst either, there was only so much I could do with this cake

Yes, it still looked messy....

 
 Moral of the story: NEVER BUY CHEAP CRAPPY PUDDING MIX AND PUT IT IN A CAKE! If you do, you will be sorry.
