New Cake...Batman

Holy butter cream Batman!

This was a birthday cake I did earlier this month, and just now got around to posting.
It was white marble cake with cream cheese filling and frosted in butter cream.

Batman, the skyline and the bats were all hand piped in royal icing (see the photo below for a close up!)


This was an interesting cake to do in that it really got my husband involved in the designing process. To say that Batman is his ultimate super hero is an understatement and so I look to him for accuracy in terms of the color and scope for the cake topper. All in all, I was pleased considering that was my 1st attempt in creating an actual character. I think that it turned out wickedly well, so much so, that I think even the Joker would be pleased. LOL


Here is a closer look at the decorating accents before they were placed on the cake:
