I totally had fun making this Retro Travel-themed Chiffon Cake with Vintage Chiffon Airplane, loosely inspired by the Dr Seuss story 'O the places he'll go'! I didn't know how quite to name the cake, hence the funny long name (sorry about it =p!). Oh but speaking of retro, I'm in love with the feel and all things vintage!
For the base, I transformed a Chocolate Chiffon Cake (recipe in link) into a retro luggage. The straps were cut from chiffon sheet cakes and stuck on with melted marshmallows. The middle tier is an Orange-Chocolate Vintage World Map Chiffon Cake, modeled after those olden maps. A Blue-green pandan World Map Chiffon Cake is found here and recipe with picture tutorial is now in Deco Chiffon Cakes book.
The blue sky dome is made by baking chiffon cake in a wilton ball cake pan, and the airplane is cut from a Tokyo banana roll.
Thankful it was well-received!
With lots of love,
Susanne
