Anyway, Vanilla rum cake,simple syrup added too, with dulce de leche and buttercream frosting iced ,fondant covered, fondant decorations.dimmensions: lenght 13", width at bottom 13",width at top almost 5"length of wings one is 4 1/2" the other is less than 4"(measure from "CROCHT" hight of CROCHT 2" I was told before attempting to standing up to let stand until next day, which is today. This morning I put it on an easel, I got in Michael's with a little inclinationas you can see in pictures ( if I manage to upload!)After 1/2 an hour it had slip down by almost an inch, I left it like that. After almost 2hrs more slipping and syrup leaking(posted pictures) After noticing at this time that the fondant is coming off at bottom by the "wing,iI took it off the easel beause I do not want to eat a dry cake., " Do you at least think that it looks as a "FLYING V GUITAR???? This was just practice!!I will be starting the real cake on thursday,decorate on friday, stand it up(not so straight!!!) on saturday evening.This is for my mothers friend be making the long top part also i just did not do it at this time because I think that is the easy part,(except for the strings(back to Michaels!! I forgot to get something for the strings)Pls if somebody has any suggestion I would be so grateful!! I need all the help I can get. THANK YOU!! By the way this is not the color for the real guitar it will be ELECTRIC BLUE, I will try to include pics of my ordeal CIAO
