This cake was done for a client whose husband practically lives at their deer lease. He catches hogs and hog-ties them instead of shooting them from a distance. She wanted him in the hog-tied position for his birthday and I was happy to oblige. This was my first attempt at figure modeling. I did the hog in gumpaste but found it too difficult so I switched to a fondant/tylose mixture to finish the others. Thanks to Aine2's great tutorials and also to my client for giving me the opportunity. My daughter, Abby, did a great job on the fishing pole, rifle, and ice chest. She didn't need a tutorial! This was a lot of fun to do.
