One of our neighbors was turning 30 years old. His wife asked me if I could copy a radio controlled plane that he made, for his cake. This was for a surprise birthday party. She flew his parents in from NC and invited all their friends to this party. I took on the challenge. This is the first time I have carved a cake. She was thrilled. His parents couldn't believe this was actually a cake. I added a few gold speckled clouds with it. The plane itself is about 3 feet by 2 feet. When I delivered it she showed me the actual plane he made. The body was about 5 ft with a 4 ft wing span!
