Travel Trunk Cake For a World Traveler

One of my best friend’s got married recently and I really wanted to do something special for her. Her and her new hubby both love to travel, so the theme of the wedding was “world traveler”. They have been many places together and they plan to go on a cruise around the Mediterranean for their honeymoon. So I decided to make them a travel trunk cake for the rehearsal dinner.

My friend has an old trunk that once belonged to her grandmother and she used to use it every year when she went to summer camp. I tried to make the cake look like her trunk by covering it in brown fondant and adding black fondant details. I then printed out postcards of all the places they have been or plan on going. The postcards were printed using edible ink on edible icing sheets and attached to the cake.
