Blue & Gold Banquet!

This past week we had the annual Blue & Gold Banquet for Cub Scouts. As a 'tradition' to the Blue and Gold Banquet the scout is suppose to make a cake that goes along with the theme for the night. Our theme was "Going to the Carnival." So Ty decided he wanted to make a 'hamburger cake' to take to the carnival! What is a more appropriate food than hamburgers at the Carnival!?! Well many...many years ago I remembered my brother making a hamburger cake for a Blue and Gold Banquet and thought it wouldn't be so hard!!! So we went for it! And what was even better about how it turned out was the two cute boys that helped make it and working with Ty! It was a great experience! 

Cute! Two brothers making a cake together!

Ty should get a prize for being the best big brother! He really is caring and kind! 

They even shared the beater together!! 

This project was all about teamwork!

Cute chocolate face! Yummy! Licking the bowl is the best part! 

About 4 hours later and one totally dirty and messed up kitchen our finished product! Looks good enough to eat! Now that is a BIG mack!!! WOW! 

Ty is ready to dig in! He totally ROCKED it! Way to go Ty! 

It looks like it could totally be on Man vs. Food and we totally made the World's Awesomest Hamburger cake! 

My favorite part was how excited and proud Ty was of his masterpiece! He did a great job!

It is 100% all cake and frosting (with real sesame seeds on top!) We only used two cake mixes and one bag of powdered sugar for frosting!!

 It almost looked too good to eat!! It tasted delicious! It won the award for the 'all beef patty award!!'

It's been fun working with Nate in scouts. He has been the Webelos leader and I'm over the wolves so we kind of work together! He is a great leader and Ty is glad he's in there with him!!
