I detect sarcasm...

Or is it just my protective instincts when my boys are in the picture?

Nick Smith wants the kids details so he can check if that bike is registered. Nice cake and lucky kid :-)

No sarcasm at all good man, I admire a dad that can competantly fill many different needs for their children

Did you make it start to finish? If so ..... Good job dude!

We should get together and start a "Bear swilling, cigarette smoking, Leather Clad Biker Father's Baking / Cake Decorating Group".

I made one for each of my kids the year I split with their mum, was trying to make a point in my case, "just cause mum aint there doesn't mean you have to miss out on cool cakes".

Sort of back fired though, now they expect one each birthday.

WOW! Cakes...mmmmm....now I want cake! Dagnabit!

**Hopeful Bastard** · 26th October 2009, 17:31

I'll take one thanks. I am turning 20 in December and would like one with a Bandit 250 on the front. In black

Anyhow dude.. Well done!

Yep, know what you mean. I have 3 boys still at home and they get a home made cake (yes, no bought stuff here!) for their B'thdays each year. I try to figure out what is important to them at the time and the cake then is made to reflect that. When my oldest was still living at home he was in to chess for a few years, so I decided to make a chessboard with pieces out of chocolate. Spent 6 hours carving out brown and white chocolate pieces that night!

Well done making their cakes. It is something they will remember for rest of their life!

Sir you have not only shown you have a great talent but great taste in cartoonage. Very well done.

The knife between the eyes is a nice touch! Is it significant in any way?

I haven't stopped at the cakes, unfortunately......

When we moved into our new (once) house, I borrowed a sewing machine off a fellow KBer to make my kids curtins.

I also hollowed out some tim tams once cause my daughter was getting her lunch nicked at school. Filled them with black icing, then sealed them back up with melted chocolate buttons to catch the little bugger out.

Unfortunately, the only one I caught was a prick at my work that nicked my lunch!

Dude, being a dad is the biggest, most honourable thing to be. I'm proud to be one, as obviously you are too, nothing is too big of an ask when it comes to being you're kids idol or role model,,,,,IMHO.

Big ups mate, keep up the good work!

Cheers!

you keep doing what you are doing too!

The knife ended up in Kennys forehead with the comment: "You killed Kenny! You bastard"

And to stop this thread from dropping in to that hole called PD lets take it back to bikes:

I have this plan of making a cake that is a bike, not only has a pic of one on it. Just need to figure out how to sort it.

Been thinking about making all the bits individually: wheels, motor, tank and then somehow connect them with something that can be eaten. Then colour it in with coloured icing sugar... Years ago I did a Teenage Ninja Turtle in same fashion. He was sitting down. But the shell was what kept him together.

Yeah, sorry about that, should not post with JD's under the belt.

PM me if you want some tips on the Cakes.
