How to make a Thomas the Tank Engine birthday cake tutorial. Bake and Make with Angela Capeski

Step by step tutorial on how to make a 3D Thomas the tank engine birthday cake. Subscribe to Bake and Make channel for weekly tutorials on cake decorating.
You will need to bake 2 x 10" square cakes, 1x 7" square cake and 1x 8" square cake. Cut the second 10" square cake in half and then half again to get your half piece that's needed for the bottom side part. Using the other half of the second 10" cut this down to size as the 8" and use this as the third piece for your 8" top stack. The tops that have been cut off to make each layer straight are not used. I used a 5cm round cutter for the wheels.

[@paulineelliott921]

Hi there, can you please tell me how large the circles are for the wheels? I am attempting to make this for my young grandchild's 1st birthday. I would be really grateful for your reply as I am now beginning to PANIC||||||

[@BakeandMake]

Hi Pauline, I used a 5.5 cm circle cutter for the wheels. If you don't have a cutter this size you can use one that is closest to this size as it won't make much of a difference. Hope this helps. Thanks, Angela

[@paulineelliott921]

Hey thank you so much Angela. Fingers-crossed all steam ahead. Pauline

Hi, can you tell me the type of cake you have used for this? (or even better the recipe). it looks quite dense and easy to work with compared to my previous experience of making a 3d cake. many thanks.

[@Willsta4897]

When you say you cut the 10" top off is that what you made the 8" out of?? And where did you get the half 10" back into a half??

[@BakeandMake]

Hi Annie, Cutting the top off the cake gives it a straight area to work with so you can stack the cakes evenly. The tops are not used, so I just throw these away. I baked 2 x 10" cakes, one 7" cake and one 8", so four cakes in total. I cut the 10" half again in half from the second 10".

[@BakeandMake]

Using the other half of the second 10" cut this down to size as the 8" and use this as the third piece for your 8" top stack

[@christalewis9569]

Super - thank you

[@Mariexcer]

My dream cake for my son!
