Description
BE CAREFUL, 'cause while you're eating, something may eat you.~
Okay so, here's my cake :D
The inside is all chocolate, dark chocolate heavy cake to be precise.
I just tried to go with a direct representation of the shirt, so the cake if covered in a green fondant, as the base. I then stacked some circular pieces of cake and surrounded them in fondant to create the trees. The leaves are spun sugar, dyed green, with painted on red areas. Then there's Little Red, made all out of tasty fondant.
Now personally I thought it was delicious, the cake recipe I found wasn't the chocolaty-est, but it was fluffy and sweet. The fondant tasted fine. Knowing I baked it just made it all the tastier.
I'd say it took about... (6) hours, give or take.
Overall fun, and I'll be looking for this contest again next year. Maybe then I wont procrastinate until the final Saturday to start getting supplies! :D
NOTE: The top of the tree only has some of the leaves as someone in my family decided that the spun sugar would make a great snack and ate it all while I was away making fondant pieces, an updated photo will be posted when the top is RE-made.
