This was a very unusual but totally fun cake to make! It was for a surprise 70th birthday party on Halloween, which was indeed the actual birthday of the guest of honor. The cake is chocolate cake with mocha frosting and fondant on the outside. We decided to make the boxer shorts a little more festive for Halloween. Nothing says Halloween like an old man belly cake…lol.

Lisa, thanks for making us part of your blog. You really did a good job on the cake! We truly appreciated it.
Love this cake, i was wondering if you would be able to share instructions with me on how to make this, would be perfect for my partners 30th
You basically use a round cake for the belly and carve the sides to get a more round shape. Then i take a mixture of cake scraps and buttercream to make a sort of edible play dough lol. And fill in the gaps with that until i get the desired shape. For the chest i just cut a square cake in half and then did the same thing. Hope that helps!
