THE COMMODORE AND HIS P3 PLANE

Aloha!


I was contacted by The Navy Catering on MCBH to create another P3 plane for the Commodore of the base


Captain R M Urbano who was hosting a dinner party for other Commodores visiting Hawaii and MCBH. I was excited to make another P3 plane. The first P3 I made was for a retirement and it was so much fun to make but because it was my first large plane I learned a lot for the next time. There are lots of different variations of P3 planes. This time I went on base and took pictures of the P3 plane. And it was perfect because The Commodore's name was on this plane so I knew the more detail I put on it they would know this was "his" plane!!

I made our famous Banana's Foster flavor which is the top requested flavor. I put green and red LED lights on the wings and 2 white lights in the front of the plane. I really like to light cakes up. It really adds that extra touch that makes cake unique. I also did something I usually never do. On the board for the cake I put big pieces of cotton fluff for clouds. The last time I piped clouds on the board but this time I wanted a different look. It came out awesome looking, like the plane was really flying through the clouds.

Nick worked this party for the catering so he was able to see the guests and their reaction to the cake. He said everyone loved it. They were all impressed that it looked like the mighty P3 plane. Its always exciting to hear how everyone loves the cakes I make. It makes it all worth it.
