Monkey vine

Sorry pic is bad, it was taken with a camera phone because my real camera is broken. Covered with white chocolate MFF. Very nice to work with, and yummy, too! Tree is gum paste and monkeys are 50/50 mix.

I love your monkeys. How did you keep them attached to the trees?

Thanks, ladies! I actually inserted a long wire through their bodies at the arm pit, then bent it up on each side. I then fed the gum paste noodle down it to make the arms. I trimmed the wire to proper arm length and bent a U on the end. I added hands, then just hooked them on the branch and added some gumpaste glue! If that isn't very clear, I can draw a picture, and add it. Sometimes it is hard to explain! :wink:
