Wilton 2105-4242 Thomas Cake Pan Reviews

Customer Ratings:

I bought this for my son's third birthday parties and made it twice (once for my husband's family and once for mine). He loved it. Mine did not turn out quite as good as their picture, but they looked pretty good. I had one happy three year old. I used the wilton food coloring and it was kind of pricey but I now have them for cakes in the future. I am planning to do Minnie for my daughter's 1st birthday this fall. I got the coloring locally. This cake took some time (a couple of hours to frost) , but it was worth it. It went faster the second time around. I am sure someone who has more practice at doing cakes would be much more efficient than I!

I can't bake anything to save my life, but my 3 year old nephew said all he wanted for his birthday was a Thomas cake. I bought this cake pan, plus Wilton icing and food coloring and it turned out amazing.

Some tips:

Set aside a good chunk of your day, because from baking to mixing the colors to actually decorating took me at least 4 hours.

Don't be afraid to over-flour the pan. I used a ton of non-stick spray, spread it around with a paper towel, sprayed again, then doused it with flour. Make sure to get every nook and cranny or Thomas will be disfigured when you try to get the cake out.

You don't need to make star-shaped tips or anything fancy like the picture. My frosting turned out too runny so I just piped lines and I think it looks fine.

You don't need to buy all the colors that the instructions say. The food coloring isn't cheap -just improvise. Same with the frosting.

If you mess up, it's very easy to fix. There's no such thing as too much frosting :)

Make sure to follow the directions, but also improvise where possible. If I can do this, anyone can. I'm going to post some pictures on here...

We were worried it was small, but could easily serve 20 people with ice cream. Really turned out nice, and was fun.
