How-to for this Elmo cake?      CakeCentral.com Forum Index » How Do I? Author Message yelle66 Frequent Member Joined: Dec 31, 2007 Posts: 256 Posted: Thu Jun 18, 2009 10:37 am  I just wondered if someone has some tips for this cake. I think it is RKT for the head and eyes and nose, so I'm thinking about 15 servings of cake just for the body. Any other ideas or does anyone disagree with the RKT conclusion?

It is all RKT on top of a real cake. Mikel79 Frequent Member Joined: Apr 06, 2009 Posts: 215 Location: Atlanta, Georgia Birthday: Nov 04 Posted: Thu Jun 18, 2009 11:02 am  What does RKT mean??

Lilrev has instructions on how she did her 3D Elmo - it might help. Scroll down on the comments and it's there - http://www.cakecentral.com/mod.....&pid=25718 Bellatheball Forum Addict Joined: Mar 03, 2008 Posts: 544 Posted: Thu Jun 18, 2009 12:13 pm  There's a blogger who made this cake and put up all of his directions. I'll see if I can find the link that was sent to me.

I would try a syrofoam ball...much lighter, and should give you the same look. Just a thought... ericaplh Junior Member Joined: Mar 18, 2009 Posts: 92 Posted: Thu Jul 02, 2009 7:24 pm  If you look at my pics, you'll see the Elmo sitting atop a tiered cake... The Elmo is molded using RKT and then I made his eyes and nose out of fondant and royal icing attached them and used royal icing for the "fur." If you have any questions, feel free to PM me..
