10 Year Millwright Cake

Tomorrow is my husbands 10 year anniversary at his job - his job is as a Millwright (hence the cake). I wanted to do something special to mark the occasion - so I made him a cake to bring to work. I made all the fondant letters look like tools he uses daily at work: Hammer, Screws, Calipers, Square, Wrenches, etc. For the 10 - I did a tig welder handle (for a 1) and a sprocket (for the zero). It was really kind of fun. I did a light blue-gray buttercream and did some outlining and writing in a darker cornflower blue.

My plan was to make a 2 layer cake - but since there will only be a few people at work tomorrow, I just did a single layer.

Happy 10 years hunny! How many more until you retire??
