Get ready to wiggle...

My son, Ryan, recently turned 4 and he has been talking about having a Wiggles birthday since he asked Santa for one 7 months ago. To say Ryan is obsessed with the Wiggles is a massive understatement... Anyway, thanks to my endless exposure to the fruit salad loving foursome, I had plenty of inspiration for his cake, just not necessarily enough time to apply it. But after a very late night, I managed to pull together the Big Red Car and it's occupants...



Due to time constraints (it was well past midnight) the Wiggles have their hair painted on, but I tried my best to make them look fairly authentic (including Anthony's sideburns).



I wanted to include some of the other characters too, but just didn't have the time. So I tried to include Wags and Dorothy in spirit with the details...



And of course any friend of Dorothy's knows of her love of roses...



Finally, just to prove that the Big Red Car was edible (and of course what Ryan insisted on eating) here is a photo of what my cakes look like on the inside. In this case, a white chocolate mudcake with white chocolate ganache...



Happy Birthday to my favourite (and only) son,


Kat
