Beer Mug Birthday Cake

I initially thought it's going to be hard to make this cake, that was why I was hesitant to take the order. Turns out, it was easier than I thought!

The client told me that her husband likes this particular beer brand. She missed ordering this for Father's day, so she made sure she'd surprise him on his birthday. This is one big mug of beer!


The challenge was making the foams of the beer. I first thought of using fondant and cut waves. It will look clean, but will not capture the foam-iness of the beer. Another peg I saw also used butter cream but just made spikes using a spatula. A friend suggest to use a round piping tube instead, to make dots in different sizes.

And so here it is! This beer can even feed the whole family without getting tipsy! :)
