Rubbish Truck Cake - A Labor of Love

A little boy was critically ill and his birthday wish was to have a cake that looks like a rubbish truck.
My pastry chef friend, Justin Wong was asked by a group of volunteers from an NGO, to do the cake for Iqbal. I availed my kitchen and Justin made the cake.
It was fun to do yet heart-breaking to know that this could be the last gift for Iqbal.

Brilliant idea of strawberry cake crumbs made into balls and wrapped in black fondant to make the begs of rubbish!

Cake flavors: strawberry and vanilla (carved from 2 recipes of cake).
