Hi. Just wondering if you have ever done a tractor birthday cake? Ds wants one for his bday, and I am having trouble even picturing it let alone attempting to make one! :lol:

Wanna come for a visit and deliver one???? :lol:

Thanks!

darlene - See site below for a picture of a John Deere tractor cake - no instructions, though. Looks like a loaf cake, a couple small round cakes, and maybe cookies for front wheels.
Perhaps you could make a sheet cake, and use matchbox or other small tractors on it. For the top of the cake you can crumble oreo cookies and they look just like dirt! Maybe some plastic cows, etc. too.



Here is a link that might be useful: http://www.cakeworkscentral.com/Cake-Scrapbook/tractor.asp

Hope this helps...

Hi Darlene
I'd love to come and visit and bring a cake with me!
What I probably would have done for a tractor cake is just drawn one on a 9x13. I do like Diane's idea using the matchbox tractor.
Good luck!
