Redbull F1 car

This was one of the hardest cakes I have made so far.  It was for a lady at work for her partner's birthday.  He had worked at Redbull before and was looking to go back to working there.  That put a bit of pressure on me to get it right :/ I made the track a bit in advance and it is made of fondant while the grass is buttercream.  I think putting the car on a track rather than just a board made it look more real and I think it really adds to the design.  The whole cake is edible and this was a real challenge.  Another really hard thing was getting all of the detail on the car.  It was obvious that this man really knew his F1 cars so I didn't want to do anything wrong. 
 
I was really pleased with how it turned out in the end and I think they were too :D
