Super Mario Cake!
Edited to add:
THE FIGURES WERE PURCHASED ON EBAY. THE CAKES PANS ARE WILTON 10 INCH AND 6 INCH. IT IS A TOTAL OF 4 LAYERS.
I make a LOT of cakes. It is kind of something I have to do by necessity (food allergy) but grew to really enjoy. I think I like the challenge. I stink at anything artistic or creative, but I feel half way competent at making cakes. I am always looking to stretch my abilities and improve.
A friend's sons (yes, 3 of them) had a birthday recently. I guess that would be birthDAYS actually. There are twin 4 year olds and a newly minted 6 year old. The 6 year old is REALLY into Super Mario. He saw a picture of a Super Mario cake in a magazine and begged his Mom for it. She, being the daring person she is, promised him to give it a go. But with 4 kids and a husband who suddenly needed surgery, I felt that making this Super Mario cake might actually be a way I could help her out.
I was really pleased with how it turned out. Most of the adults commented on how great it looked (and tasted). My friends husband even suggested I go into business (as IF!). But the absolute BEST compliment of the day came from the birthday boy himself.
"I totally love my cake! It's even BETTER than the picture!"
This adorable little boy melted my heart. I'd make him 10 more in a heartbeat.

Oh, WOW! My son would absolutely love to have a cake like that!
Yes, I’m a mom, but I love Mario, too. That is one sweet looking cake! What an amazing talent you have!
That is a great looking cake. We are going to attempt to make one. What size pans did you use?
That is a FABULOUS cake! Every year I look online for ideas for my son’s birthday … I don’t know that I could make one half as good as this, but wow .. what an inspiration! Hmmm… where did you find all of the characters? You are really talented and (dare I say it?) ARTSY and CREATIVE!!!! Fabulous!
I would also be interested in the types of pans used and any other tips you could share! Thanks!
can you send me where to get the pieces for this cake
Hi,
Just amazing. What a super thing to do for your friend and her boys! It’s so hard to find Mario stuff these days. I too would like to know where you got the figures. Can you email me with the details? I may just get brave enough to try my own cake.
This is an awesome cake! It’s a perfect idea for my hubby… he’s a little kid at heart. About how long did it take you to make it?
CAn you send me the directions to make this cake
Hey, this is amazing! I’ve been looking for Mario cakes to do, but they are either hideous, or way out of my league. This one is perfect! Something I think I might actually be able to attempt. I would love to know what kind of frosting you used and where you found the figurines. I am truly in awe!!!
That is sooo cute. My little grandson will be turning 7 Feb. 21 and loves Mario. He is coming to visit me on his birthday (he lives 6 hours away) and I would love to surprise him with this cake. I would like to know where you got the figurines. I would appreciate any help you could give me.

Hi,
My son is having his sixth party in july and I have ordered alot of the supplies from the Phillipines for Mario. But your cake is incredible. I would love some directions as how to attempt to make it. I guess I’d have to make a practice one first. Please send my instructions as how to replicate this beauty. Thanks so much.

Hi,
I was wondering what size pans you used to get this effect. My son is having a mario party and i have already found the figures. Did you use buttercream icing for this. If you can please send me your secrets I would love to surprise him. I showed him the picture this morning and he was in awe and could not stop smiling. Wanted to know where we could buy the cake for dinner tonight! Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am guessing that you used fondant for the decorations. How long did this take?
hi,
great cake i was just wondering what the recipes etc were and where you got your figurines from? please
Great Cake!! could you please tell me where you got the mario figures. Thanx
Hi again,

My son is truly in love with your cake. He would love for me to try and make something like it for his birthday. I am not talented in cake making. What did you use for the decorating (clouds, boxes, etc.) and where did you find the figures that you used? THank you so much if you can help me with this.
AMAZING!!! My son wants a Super Mario Bros cake and I have found out you can not find one in the stores. It’s looking like I will have to attempt to make his cake for him. I have no experience in cake decorating like yours. Can you please help me by telling me what you use for decorating the cake, what kind of pans did you use, and would it be possible to send me the recipe? Oh yes, I almost forgot the infamous question, where did you get the figurines? Thank you SOOOO much for helping me!!!
I was wondering do you do orders?
My son’s 4th b-day is on coming up soon (august 30), and I need super mario figurines to decorate his cake. Could you tell me where did you get them? I would really appreciate it.

My son all of a sudden has decided he wants a Mario party for his birthday. Of course, we have plenty of time because his birthday is not til August. So we’ve just been looking around at decorations and he has said not to forget a Mario cake. So I began searching for that and I saw this one you’ve made and thought oh my! how awesome is that! There is no way I could make this myself. You are very talented! It’s almost too nice to eat! LOL!
Hi! What a great cake! I would love to make it for my son’s birthday next month. Can you tell me where you got the Mario figurines? I don’t think mine will look as good as yours but I would love to try it. Thanks!!!

Hi there!
My daughter is turning 6 in June, but I am currently trying to get ideas for a Mario-themed birthday party. I LOVE your cake. You captured the whole essence of Mario. I would love to know where you found the figurines you used and step-by-step instructions on how to make this cake and what materials I will need.
Thank you for your time,
Tricia
I just wanted to thank you for this idea. My husband and I just threw a birthday party for my daughter. She saw this cake and immediately decided it was just the cake for her party. It was a lot of fun putting it together and she loved it! Everyone thought it was great. Thank you for the idea.
[...] online at Super Mario cakes, Lili had seen a rainbow cake and really wanted it. She also saw this Mario cake and decided she wanted something similar. We did our best. James used his cnc to make templates [...]
Can someone please send me step by step directions to make this cake? I would really appreciate it.
thanks

Thanks for the great idea! I made this cake for my son’s 10th b-day and it turned out almost as good as yours. He absolutely loved it!!! Thanks again!
This is an amazing cake. My son’s b-day is on the 6th and he will be 6 so I wanted to do a special cake for his “golden” birthday. His party is on the 23rd and I would love to make him a cake similar to this- do you make your own frosting? If so could you email some tips and hints to me, I used to make cakes when I was younger but stopped in high school. I don’t have any frosting tips but I do have round pans but forgot my frosting recipe. Any help you could offer would be great! Thanks a bunch AND I do agree with your hubby you should go into business
