Have you ever seen anything as clever as this Lego cake?

Both Lego and Duplo Blocks () have long been a favorite of children. This homemade Lego cake without a doubt takes the cake! Though intended for the first birthday, you can easily adapt this cake to any age you wish.

Curious how this creative mom created the snap-in studs to enhance the cake? She molded thinly rolled fondant icing around stubby drinking straws. After allowing time to become somewhat dry, she scored the fondant and very carefully slid the studs free from the straw.

This cake is a great example of how with just a little imagination, your child's cake can be very unique.
