I made this pommel horse cake for my gymnast son to share with his teammates who were suitably impressed! It was really easy since the fondant came in the perfect colors for the pommel and the blue mats. The handles are gumpaste rolled and wrapped around two bendy drinking straws spliced togetherand bent at right angles. The cake was a 9X14 rectangular cake cut in half lengthwise and stacked. The boys loved it!
