This year, Dude turned 17. SEVENTEEN!!! I mean, what? Dude was 2 when I started this blog, making it fairly ancient in blog years.
It’s been several years since Dude has had his own birthday cake request (other than flavor). Usually I choose myself or his brother chooses something. But this year, he asked for an Xbox 360 cake, so I made it happen!
Since black fondant takes a ridiculous amount of food coloring, I started with a chocolate fondant and only needed to use a small amount of black food dye to achieve the color I needed for the Xbox console.
As usual, Spud was at my side advising, first making sure I had to proper size, then the correct angles as I cut the cake, and finally to the right colors and positioning for all of the buttons.
