I like the toilet also but I would take into account your guests' sense of humor!.
Wilton Cakes is one of the oldest and most reputable manufacturer of baking stuff!.
You can make a pattern or themed cake by baking regular sheet or rounds cake and carving into the shape you want!.
Remember to let the cake itself cool completely before attempting to carve!. If the cake has lots and lots of layers, use dowels to help anchor the cake in place!.
Fondant would be my choice of icing because it has a "harder" surface than a buttercream!.
White fondant will pick up ANY color so I would make your appliance some kind of color!.
You could buy oval-shaped cake pans and cut it to resemble a toilet!. The back could be sheet cake cut and stacked!. Additionally, you can buy round cake pans from 4" d to almost anything you want if you wanted to make pipes
Watch "Ace of Cakes" on the Food Network to get really inspired!. Those people are amazing!
Good luck!Www@FoodAQ@Com

i like your profile name its wicked (p!.s!. im not try to win brownie points :D)
have a cake with a tap stood up on part of a sink using blue icing as the water flowing out of it all over the rest of cake in puddles and have a little marzipan tool box and other tools lying all over the cake
i think a bespoke cake would be better than a pre determined one and no offence to the others but the toilet is a little bit obvious and toilet humour is so last century!.!.!.!.lol
hope whatever you come with is appreciated by him and he returns the favor (if you know what i mean ;D)
happy birthday to your husbandWww@FoodAQ@Com

Off the top of my head: a pipe cake!
Get two fairly small, short, round pans of different sizes (i!.e!. an 8" and a 6"
Make two 6" cakes, and then cut them all in half and lay them on the flat side, all lined up (so that it looks like a quonzet hut)!. Then, make one 8" cake, and cut that one in half too!. Put each half on either side!. Then, make some frosting and use black food coloring to make it gray!. It will look like a pipe!
Oh, or you could keep the frosting white if you wanted to make a PVC pipe!. =D
