IR cake.

Good morning,

Some friends asked my wife to do a birthday cake for a girl of eight years. With her ​​age she is crazy about princesses.
Well, what came to mind was that despite having done many projects with Arduino i had never applied electronics in a cake. So we decided to join forces and add some light (RGB LED) and movement (DC motor controlled with an L298) to the cake. Here is the link to the video:

Hello arduino friend.Very nice project,idea.For receive IR signals use IR receiver and arduino with led,dc motor?What remote control use?

Yes, i used a Arduino Uno, a DC Motor and a RGB Led and a improvised shield whith a L298 to controll the motor. Here are some pictures:
