Hi Abbi! I love this cake and my son is having a video game truck party for his 9th birthday in 2 weeks. This would be perfect. Can you please tell me what size pan I would need and maybe explain the napkin trick. Thanks so much for sharing, I think I may be able to pull this off alone (without the help of a bakery)

Hi Abbi, You have made such a fantastic cake. Can I ask what size tray you used and how you made the joysticks???
My son is going to be 7 years old in 9 days and I am going to try and make this for him as a surprise, as he is xbox mad and I know he would love this. Many thanks.

My boyfriends 16th birthday is next month and besides me the thing he loves most is XBOX 360. He is always talking about it. So i though i’d talk to his mom and then look on google and look at game cakes. I found yours and thought it was just what i was looking for. Thank you so much i cant wait to make it for him. He is going to be so happy:)

I just made this cake yesterday and it looks great – thanks for the help! The only thing I did differently was use fondant for the strip on the side of the controller, mostly out of laziness! Great instructions!
