Leader of the Pack - Giant Motorcycle Cake

Leader of the Pack - Giant Motorcycle Cake

This is an amazing cake project by Tami Utley - a giant motorcycle cake that we call “Leader of the Pack.”
Tami was asked to make this cake for a Harley dealership in California, and we thought it would make an outstanding how-to video set for you, so we recorded her making it from A - Z.
In this video tutorial, you’ll learn how to construct the the cake from the very beginning to the very end - with PVC pipe for the structure, crispy rice treats for the wheels, and a cake engine and gas tank ready to feed 200. Tami even adds “exhaust” escaping from the mufflers - it’s truly amazing!
Tami is an outstanding teacher, and after you watch this 63-part video set, you’ll believe that you can make the same super-impressive cake!
Tami utilizes cake decorating “tricks of the trade” with this cake. It’s best to have the “Cake Decorating Made Easy!” basics under your belt, or have other cake decorating experience to get the most out of this video set!
