Just finished this cake this morning for my best friends little boy. His birthday party is today and has no idea this is the cake he is getting. Hopefully he will love it. My grass was not as nice as yours but my husband says it looks awesome. Thanks for the idea.
That is so awesome Rebekka!
Hi Sheryl, I LOVE this! Where did you get the trophy from?
Hi Laura, I got the trophy along with the mario kart stuff at my bakery store. I found these on Amazon….I think they’re the same one. Mini Award Trophies
