Egzandra Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 My daughter plays the saxaphone and for her birthday party, which is this Saturday, she has asked me to make a saxaphone cake. I have already made a 10" square madeira which is in the oven, and am making the second madeira this afternoon. Even with 20" x 10" the sax will have to be out of proportion and I wonder if anyone here has any ideas of what I could do to make it look good? These daughters, eh. She would not have a clock cake or a house cake, which are my old stand bys! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 Oh if only I knew where the pictures were. I had a sax cake made for my 21st! I remember she had made part of it (round and tapering) in a cheese grater. It was a lovely cake I think - can't remember entirely as it was one of those parties where copious amounts of alchol was consumed and may have necessitated a trip to casualty after I fell of some 6" heels then carried on to someone's 40th whilst my ankle grew larger than my knee and I couldn't walk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 I just googled for saxaphone cakes - there are quite a few that you could look at. I liked this one..... http://www.thecakestore.co.uk/acatalog/Saxaphone.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egzandra Posted February 19, 2009 Author Share Posted February 19, 2009 Thank you for your replies and the link! That's food for thought. I have made the basic cakes now. My son says he will have a look at the picture on the internet and see if he can come up with a template during the day, as he is not at work today.
