Toro Rosso F1 car cake This was the most difficult thing I have ever made! I started off with my normal sponge, but with added lemon as it was my boyfriend’s birthday cake and he loves lemon deserts! All I added was some lemon zest and juice, and made a lemon syrup to help stick together the car parts, to make this you just melt sugar in a pan and add some lemon juice. So I made several sponges and then cut out various shapes to stick together. I then rolled out blue icing and laid it onto the sponge car, and then decorated with the sponsors and Toro Rosso bull. I added a little gold glitter where the gold decals and sponsors are. The tyres are sponge cut into circles with black icing on, I made small grey cylinders of icing to look like a kind of suspension. The following pictures show the process step by step:
